Anchored in Silence (40cm x 40cm)

“Open your mouth only if what you are going to say is more beautiful than silence”. Arabic Proverb

This stately tree is anchored in the strength of its silence. And sometimes, silence speaks volumes. When we consider the power of words, we need to also consider the power of silence. Sometimes, what we all need most is to be heard. Learning to listen, without giving advice, isn’t easy.
