"Some people will believe anything if you whisper it to them," says Spanish philosopher Miguel de Unamuno.
A whisper is intimate.
It requires that your mouth be next to the ear of the other. Close enough to smell the other, to see the beautiful imperfections that make her human. A whisper requires one person to be still, to allow the other's muted words to float in the silence.
A whisper requires trust.
Trust to allow the other to penetrate sacred space. To chance an embrace.
Walk with me, weary traveler, to stand next to Elijah on that holy mountain, and listen to the whisper of God.
