Had a bit of a surprised smile on my face when I saw your email just now, Yasumi. Maybe I am also speaking more through silence these days. I am still not quite sure where it is heading, but this is the opening paragraph of my current writing:
"And I come to this month’s On Being Moved not quite knowing what June was, or what it meant. And with the thought that I am not sure if I am up for writing anything at all.
Oh I love your writing. I can relate to your note on June. It feels odd writing about having nothing to say and how it is actually enough to say. Thank goodness you get me!
This is just wonderful!
Thank you Susanne. I think that more silent signs, might be good for us all.

Silence in the age of noise is one of my favourite books, great observations here!
It's a great book, isn't it? One that I pick up and re-read in part, quite often
These are so good! Nothing like coming upon a 'blank'. Very good!
Blanks are brilliant. It's like they silently say...."here's some space to breathe!".
and it's okay 💜
