Okay, okay, okay I am the first to admit it we are a family of talkers, and if we don't know the person thats fine, we will talk to you, in the doctor's rooms, in the queue at the grocery store, in a lift, in the cinema, in a reastaurant, strangely enough not on aeroplanes i have yet to sit next to someone, whose nose was not in their, computors, ipods, smart phones, or what ever electronic devices are available these days. I really don't mind going into a room full of people because I will just introduce myself and find someone to talk to.
But sometimes, just sometimes I want silence, not quiet, but silence. No music, no TV, no dogs licking their paws, or any other part of their bodies, disgusting or not, that they are able to reach, no cats, munching their food, chasing each other under the beds, up and down the passages, no birds laughing.............. nothing like right now............. perfect.
Kayla and Noah are away at my sister for a week and I am all alone and enjoying every minute of it............ silence.........
I enjoy silence too unlike my husband who is chatty and very friendly and getting hard of hearing have to turn on the news or political debates and discussions the moment he sits down....but after a very long time married to a talker, I kind of appreciate silence too. Like you, no TV or radio. The only thing I can hear is the clock ticking on the wall.
