Friday, 05 June 2009 - The sound of silence

Dear God:

Today, I am thankful for the sound of silence.

Honk if you hate noise pollution.

On my first day in my new office, I had trouble adjusting to the very quiet, very professional environment.

The warehouse from where I came was a very noisy place - forklifts beeping, conveyor belts humming, boxes/pallets thumping and bumping, people shouting. Noise was evidence that people were working.

On Monday, the silence was almost unnerving. Until I got used to it. Took a few hours, but I managed.

For this blessing, I am grateful.

Amen.
