There’s a popular practice in our country today: tuning out the noise from the outside, and listening to the noise on the inside. However, what if we could benefit from listening to the noise on the outside? I don’t mean eaves dropping or alertly listening to the noise, but what if we just listened to the noise, heard it, and found peace in it? Right now I hear the television blaring and cars driving by. Just being able to hear the noise, and multiple noises, is pretty amazing. What if we couldn’t hear anything? How disconnected from the world outside of ourselves would we feel? Maybe if we could even learn to appreciate the noise, even just for a few moments, we could reach a new level of acceptance and tolerance in other aspects of our lives. Most sounds outside of ourselves are out of our control, so instead of allowing them to irritate us, let’s practice just listening to the noise.
