“I have often regretted my speech, never my silence.” -Xenocrates

“I have nothing to say / and I am saying it / and that is poetry / as I needed it” John Cage

John Cage’s most famous musical composition is called 4’33”.
It consists of the pianist going to the piano, and not hitting any keys for four minutes and thirty-three seconds.  If the listener truly listens, the sounds of the audience and the environment around the pianist fill the silence.

What happens when you are not speaking, guiding, or directing? That is the composition of your instruction…the activity when you are silent…
