If No Birds Sang

“The woods would be very silent

if no birds sang there

except those that sang best.”

– Henry van Dyke –

 

You don’t have to be the best. Be at home within yourself, and sing as only you can.

Nourish peace, cultivate loving kindness, and carry the calm.

Why a Bird Sings

“A bird does not sing because it has an answer.

It sings because it has a song.”

– Chinese proverb –

 

Poet and novelist Rainer Maria Rilke said, “Live the questions.”

No answers are necessary for your soul to sing.

Nourish peace, cultivate loving kindness, and carry the calm.
