Shhh…

We live in a state of constant noise.
Human activity – vehicles, heavy machinery, airplanes, and electronic devices.
The natural world – birds, wind, thunder and insects.
Rarely, do we experience actual quiet.
When we do, we’re compelled to fill it with sound – any sound – as quietness feels awkward in our hustle and bustle world.
An empty house? Turn on the TV.
Driving? Find a station on the radio.
Taking a walk? Grab your earphones and device.
Quiet is a luxury that costs nothing.
Take sometime to simply sit and think, without any background or foreground noise.
Learn to embrace the quiet.
