Frank, AKA PC guy IV is our host.

For this week’s Truthful Tuesday, Frank wants to know…

Do you enjoy true peace and quiet, or do you need a cacophony of background noise to feel at ease?

When I am writing sometimes I write with music on, and sometimes I will write in complete silence.

Sometimes I need noise to drown out the noise in my head, the noise of my alters I mean.

They can all talk at once, and it is like a zoo.

In the morning when I get up, I like to sit on my recliner, for half an hour or so in complete silence, just listening to the birds.

I’ll usually drink a cup of coffee then and sometimes I’ll scroll on my phone or answer comments that came in overnight to my blog.

Right now at this very minute the TV is on, but I am not really paying attention to it, I just have it on for company.

I guess my overall answer is it depends, on a lot of different things, my mood, my headspace, as to whether I need to have background noise or not.

    Lots of meditators swear by a period of peaceful silence to start the day. I know I do!
