The Pause is our simplest way to Peace

Within you there is a stillness and sanctuary to which you can retreat at anytime and be yourself (Herman Hesse) Human freedom involves our capacity to pause, to choose the one response toward which we wish to throw our weight. - Rollo May It is not the scenery you miss by going too fast-you also miss the sense of where youʼre going and why -Eddie Cantor The right word may be effective, but no word was ever as effective as a rightly timed pause - Mark Twain The way to find the real ʻworldʼ is not merely to measure and observe what is outside us, but to discover our own inner ground. For that is where the world is, first of all my deepest self. - Thomas Merton Play Pause

The deepest level of communication is not communication, but communion. It is wordless. It is beyond words. It is beyond speech, and it is beyond concept. Not that we discover a new unity. We discover an older unity. My dear Brothers, we are already one. But we imagine that we are not. And what we have to recover is our original unity. What we have to be is what we are - Thomas Merton
