I find I actually 'hear' a lot during 'silence'. I'm okay with myself, not afraid to see the bigger picture, or take in insights usually hidden/muffled/distorted by the noise and bluster of everyday life |

I love silence. I love being on my own to enjoy the silence.
When i have my day off work and when my children are in School or are with their dad, i just enjoy the peace. No telly. No music. It recharges me.

Can there ever be any such a thing as pure silence? I think you'd have to be completely deaf to truly understand what that means.
It can be quiet but there's always a sound coming from somewhere whether it's the sound of your partner's breath at night, the rustle of bed sheets, rain through an open window. It's quiet where i am now but i'm surrounded by birdsong, the distant lowing of cattle, a crow, the hum of a light aircraft.
In this you can appreciate quiet but it's never truly silence, you just have to listen. |

There and to the left a bit |
I can appreciate both equally - there are times when I need "noise" just to keep me company but also times when noise can be a distraction or you just want to be alone with your thoughts - I'll often late at night switch the TV off and just enjoy the silence.
As someone said above you can never have true silence though there's always a level of noise albeit in the background.
Right now I'm enjoying my back step with nothing more than a cup of tea, the buzz of bees and the sound of birdsong, along with muted traffic noise and the occasional plane overhead for company. |

I love silence, I find it really recharging and I'm happy in my own company. But there's a lot to be said for comfortable silence with another. That's much more beautiful. |
