Now that i’m not drowning out people and marking the passage of time by how many podcast episodes I’ve listened to, I feel less of a need to be constantly playing stuff. I’m getting into the new Maris song now (that I’d already heard lol) but I spent an hour cooking breakfast and making coffee in silence before even turning on my TV or anything. Sometimes silence is welcome lol

I saw a quote somewhere that read “Silence is the language of God,” and a couple of days later my AirPods finally stopped working. I interpreted this as divine intervention, and began experimenting with quiet in various scenarios and settings.
I’m typically the type of person who has some sort of music/podcast/video/voice in their ears at all times, and frankly I believe it was stunting my ability to think freely and withstand discomfort. I was beginning to feel that I was almost cheapening the media I consumed by multitasking, and I am hoping to renew my imagination and sense of mindfulness/presence by developing a better relationship to Quiet.
I am training myself to listen to the naturally occurring sounds of my own existence rather than drowning out the world all the time. So far so good.

i keep waking up in no mood to hear any music, podcasts, etc. and just focusing on the sounds of the commute. tune into that person mouthing off their lover on the phone. listen deeply to the screech of the subway as is settles into the station. embrace the sirens of passing emergencies. all are worth lending your ear to.

I got him at a particularly difficult point in my life and I’ve had him for 6.5 years now wow!!! He’s always been big, just much larger dimensions than a normal cat as well as being a little chubby lol. He’s a sweetie pie and is finally coming around to his little sister 💛
