Chinese Traditional Story: The Silent Agreement between Heaven and Earth

All that lives in nature is still and quiet. Nature’s sounds are silent yet beautiful. Its quietness surpasses any other sound in the world. Being able to appreciate the sound of nature is a reflection of a higher realm—the harmony of Heaven and man. The same principles also apply to music and talking. Some people chatter endlessly their entire lives, pausing only when they realize that silence speaks louder than words.
