words whether they are vocalized

 into sounds or remain unspoken as thoughts

 can cast an almost hypnotic spell on you

 you easily lose yourself in them

 and can become hypnotized into implicity

 believing, that when attach a word to something

 you know what it is the fact is you don't know

 you have only covered up the mystery with a label

 everything a bird a tree even a simple stone

 and certainly a human being is ultimately unknowable

 becoming shallow lifeless deadened

 to life unfolding around you within

 grasping the awe inside around you

 when you stare a flower or a bird let it be

 without imposing a word or label to it

 a sense of awe and wonder arises within

 a sense of the miraculous returns to your life

 that was lost long ago

 the quicker you attach words to things people or situations

 the more shallow and lifeless your reality becomes

 and the more deadened you become to the miracle

 of life that continuously unfolds within and around you

 all we can perceive and experience is the surface

 layer of reality less than the tip of the iceberg



 listen to silence



 words reduce reality to something the

 human mind can grasp which isn't very much
