We live in a very noisy world, both literally and figuratively. It can make us feel overwhelmed, exhausted by the clatter and activity around us.
Lots of people think they can’t live without “noise” around them. But silence can be golden.
Consider this: you can’t really hear yourself think without silence. But engulfed as we are in noise, we don’t even think about thinking.
If you want to improve your relationships and your life, unplug the music, the TV and everything else that competes with listening, whether to another person or to yourself. Be still. Contemplate life through the filter of quiet and solitude.
And let me know what happens.
