A Moment of Silence

It’s way after midnight right now, and I’m hesitant on going to bed, so I’m sitting here on my sofa in the silence of my apartment.

But it’s interesting because as I sit here in this silence, I start to hear the fan from my laptop and take notice of the noise outside. The city life going on after midnight.

Oh, and I hear the neighbor’s TV is on as well. And the refrigerator in the kitchen… well, it’s there humming along loudly as it keeps my food cold. A little honk of a horn outside.

It’s so interesting. I thought I was sitting here in silence, which I really needed before going to sleep, but everything is just so loud right now.
