Everything I've ever learned...my
entire life...can be summed up into one word.
….Noise....
Now, when I say noise, don’t mistake
it for the burning rubber and blaring sirens of a 3a.m. variety. I
don’t mean the noise of a passing train or of an older woman,
originally from Kiev, trying to hustle her grand kids toys and
handmade scarves on the busiest street on Brighton. Not the coffee
shop or store front noise, or of children wailing either.
None of that good stuff.
As children, loud noises scare us
because we don’t understand them; where it comes from, what causes
them or why they even come about. As we age, we learn to understand
the noise, where it comes from and even learn to create our own
noise. We do so up to the point where the noise we experience and the
noise in our environment become a part of who we are.
Therefore, it is safe to presume
that our fear as adults would be to understand.....
The
LACK...of...........noise.
To be surrounded by our own silent thoughts echoing in the confines
of our mind is the new noise we fear.
We
are only left to understand ourselves, or, the lack of external
noise.
In statistics, noise is considered to be an unexpected variation in
data which cannot be replicated. Its significance in research is
important solely for this purpose; our human experience is
subjective, and furthermore, it is numeric proof that we are all
unique.
So when you hear the blaring sirens, or walk down the bustling
streets.....
to more important things like:
breaking boundaries
transforming yourself
trying something new
climbing the highest heights
falling in love
falling out of love
losing loved ones
and regaining a sense of faith............
Realize that the world around you, the noise in your environment,
Its all secondary.
Its what you learn and its what you experience that is most
important.
.......Embrace the noise..........
Embrace an ever changing you.
