About this listen
Room 314, hospice wing. Margaret Chen hasn't spoken in three days - not since she saw in her daughter's eyes that this goodbye would be their last. Words had become inadequate for forty-seven years of mothering, six decades of living.
Amy sits beside her mother's bed, filling silence with nervous chatter about anything except what can't be said. But Margaret is learning a different communication - the grammar of presence, syntax of touch, eloquence of silence.
Jesus chose silence before Pilate. Not because He couldn't speak, but because some truths transcend explanation. His silence spoke of dignity that doesn't require vindication, love that doesn't need justification.
Some of the most important conversations happen without syllables. Silence isn't the opposite of communication - it's communication refined to its purest form.
