silence

We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature – trees, flowers, grass- grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence… We need silence to be able to touch souls. mother teresa

jon birch and i created a track a while back that we have since put forward for 2 projects and had rejected both times so i thought i’d upload it here. it’s a track called silence and (yes you guessed it) is silent – well almost. a bell rings at the start and then 5 minutes later at the end. silence is imporatant but difficult so 5 minutes seemed a good length – try it. the file is an mp3 about 5mb so if you are on a dial up modem don’t bother – just do the silent bit. we have used this track at gracelet once before i think…
