...is it kind, is it necessary, is it true,

......does it improve upon the silence?

Good one, for sure. I have to chuckle when I think of Shirdi (not to be confused with the other Sai Baba), because it reminds me of riding through the town of Shirdi on the train (or was it a bus?) and spotted a sign above a building advertising the Shirdi Sai Baba Garage....

(can any words ever really improve upon the Silence...?)

Happy Sunday!
