Do good in silence.

Love God and your neighbor in silence.

Accept the will of God in silence.

Be happy with others in silence.

Hide the defects of others in silence.

Long for great things in silence.

Embrace the cross of Christ in silence.

Be faithful to the end...in silence.

And so you will enjoy the Silence of Intimacy forever.

but they are Advent oriented, 

don't you agree?
