I’m going to start this one off with a quote; this one happens to be on my facebook page, and is one of my favorites. “Sometimes during solitude I hear truth spoken with clarity and freshness; uncolored and untranslated it speaks from within myself in a language original but inarticulate, heard only with the soul, [...]
