WHAT DO YOU SEE

_What do you see?
_ The ocean?
_What do you see?
_ The birds?
_ What do you see?
_ The boats spread around?
_ What do you see? Don't ask me.


MORFINO the sage

INVISIBLE

once upon a time, there was a boy who found out that he could become invisible.
he did not know what to do with this surprisingly powers than he went to talk to the air, which was already invisible.

_ Hello, mister air, can we talk a little bit?
_ Sure, but I can not see you.
_ I cannot see you either

Said Morfino, the sage, whose wisdom is proportional to his silence. 

SHORT TALK

_ Master, how can I talk to you in English and receive your available wisdom through my poor English skills?
_ When you are not considering to face this limitation it will not exist. We get surprised with our response to difficult situations when this is not a question. 
_ How can I comunicate with lack of words? 
_ When we do not say anything we get to de bedrock of comunication. Everything we say is  ilusion. The truth is silent. 
_ So I should not be here to listen you.
_ No one needs to listen to nobody. Listen is just a grace, a gift. In silence we listen to the nothingness that both of us are. 

EYES

A guy sees his wife kissing another man on bar's table. He gets closer and finds out that she was kissing his best friend. 
He gets surprised, especialy because his wife should be travelling during week, leading a project many miles from that place.
He walks slowly toward them. The couple see him, but both can't say a word.
He looks profoundly into her eyes. She looks back. They keep talking in a profound silence for a while.
_I am not going to say anything that my eyes haven't said - he says.
Than he looks into his friends eyes. And they stay quiet, for half an hour. 

SILENCE

_ Master, we have been seated for about one and half hour and you haven't said a single word. I am sorry to break your silence, but I am eager to receive something from your immense wisdom.

The sage stood sit and quiet.  He took a peace of thread that was coming out of his blouse'sleave, made a ball with it with the point of his fingers and ofered it to the visitor. 

Than the visitor accepted the offer with the points of his fingers, stood up and walked away.
