so i silence myself in order to hear myself and having heard myself, then i do not look for someone to speak for me?

how does my conscious speak in the silence?

Sara said...

Is there someone different inside of you?

How does your conscious listen to the silence?

anne artist said...

one someone or many?

Sara said...

Great point.
How many of you could be inside of you.........mmm

anne artist said...

is one lifetime enough to get a glimpse of them all?

Sara said...

If one lifetime is enogh to fall in love, then yes......

anne artist said...

and when one has seen them all, what is next?

Sara said...

Is not next death?...just another way to live

anne artist said...

i an intrigued by that.....death as another way to live.....thanks.

am wondering, though, if not during our lives, do we not become like snake shedding her skin or phoenix rising from the ashes? do our lives experience little deaths along the way so that something new can be born of it?

Sara said...

Is not that the definition of "learn"...maybe?
From mistakes of course

anne artist said...

i like the image of snake shedding her skin because she has learned and is learning.

Sara said...

I love snakes......they are my favorite animal

anne artist said...

yes. to able able to grow and then shed one's skin and be warmed by the sun in the newness of it all.....
