I just love the silence. Especially when my mind also goes a bit silent.
It's like a short reprieve from all the chaotic noise (literal and figurative) and is the best way for me to relax. I just sit alone in the sun or stand and look out at the garden and cats.
Sleeping doesn't do it for me because I have insane nightmares, insomnia and sleep apnea. And I always feel that you don't get to experience the quiet and rest while sleeping. You close your eyes and the next thing you know it's morning again. Like time just jumped forward.I often get up in the morning feeling more tired than last night.
But when I have a moment of quiet I cherish it until it gets broken
