anticipatory silence

"There are many kinds of silence to encounter in life,
but there is a particular and delicious terror
to the anticipatory silence that we create
from actually following our heart's desire."
- David Whyte

    Jan, this quote is from David Whyte's book, "Crossing the Unknown Sea - Work as a Pilgrimage of Identity"....I was introduced to it during a discernment group meeting..and this particular quote took my breath away.....
