PAUSE

To pause is good - before we throw words
or  rocks or respond or react to another.

To pause is good - when we think we know
why another said or did what they did.

To pause is good - when we are going to
buy a new car or house or horse or idea.

To pause is good - before we stop listening to
another because something they said, triggers 
a similar story in us which we want to tell.

To pause is good - when we are going to
pray - and so we say to God, “Before I start, 
is there anything you want to say to me?”
