What If: Nothing Else To Say

What If...there is nothing else to say?

Sometimes, this can happen rather suddenly.  In a conversation, an awkward pause; uh oh, what to talk about now?

At another level, something like this can also brood under the surface of our lives as a kind of despondent nothing-newness.  If nothing new can be said, what else is there to do?

But, consider this; why is it that we tend to believe that what makes something valuable is that it is new? 

What about the value of repeating something that has been said before, perhaps even a long time ago?  Of saying it again?  Of saying it now, at this time?

What If...the doing of that were all the value in the world after all?

It has been said, there is "nothing new under the sun".  So, it would seem that what we say next, is what really matters....
