Awareness Quote by Anodea Judith

“Sound awareness is especially important, for although we easily close our mouth and eyes to what we don’t want to take in, we can’t really close our ears. Nature did not give us earlids. Our ears remain open and working even when we sleep. STEVEN HALPERN” quote by Anodea Judith
