Yes, it is an awesome experience of quiet. The thickness of the silence. It is amazing how deep and seductive it gets.

Silence becomes so dominating and thick one can almost touch and certainly see it as small balls of light joyfully floating around. It's tempting to spend longer periods of time in such a manner, perhaps in the Mountains. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <fleetwood_macncheese@...> wrote : One thing I have noticed in my new neck of the woods, is the silence. No more hum and growl of traffic, the vibration of the freeways. I have several musical instruments, and a lot of music, but the silence is so seductive, I find myself keeping the house as quiet inside, as the outside. Most of the time it is thickly and peacefully silent, here. I had ideas before being here, that now that I have the space, and distance from neighbors, I could listen to songs at concert volume, but I have yet to do so. Far more soothing to hear the quiet.
