Noise is distracting. There are many ways to control the environment to reduce the amount of noise entering into the brain. We decided to disconnect our TV service. We no longer listen to the din of endless, often nonsensical chatter on the TV. When we speak, we can hear each other. When we pray, we hear God in our hearts and souls. We are much more tuned into nature, the call of birds, the hoot of owls in our yard, the wind of a new weather front coming through.
This may take some getting used to, and occasionally, I miss the inane chatter of human voices. Usually, the simple quiet of the earth and its creatures produces a calming affect compatible with living a Godly life.
Nice post, I'm totally on board with this one :)
ReplyDeleteYou will have quiet challenges in your new home with it being near the school. It will not be constant voices, only at recess and the end of school.
