This is beautiful. So many images of past and future. You are right. One way to manage is to write.

Yes...we consume a lot a noise from outside, and less recharge our body and soul with silence. We are almost loosing the ability to have some place to our own mind without any interference. No wonder people are paying for meditations instead of creating it ourselves. Embrace the silence, the nature, the wild and the what we have forgotten - be boring.

Even with all the noise, my children tell me I am boring. Not sure "quiet" will make much of a difference in that regard😉

hahaha....but let me remind you the line that you need to underscore; "I can’t remember the last time there wasn’t one bit of noise in my house". Maybe you`ll discover a new chapter in your journey.

Lovely meditation. Silence is an acquired taste and not for the timid. I occasionally hang out at a Benedictine monastery and find it always takes me a day or two to get used to it. When was the last time I enjoyed hearing the sound of a bird flap its wings?
