Nearly everyone has listened to music and derived some form of joy from it. Its easy to see from the dancing and moving caused by the beat of the drums or the strings vibrating, but sometimes what someone needs to hear is nothing. Silence can be refreshing not just when someone is trying to go to sleep, but also when that person is trying to reflect. Hearing oneself speak is a blessing and ones voice is loudest when the outside world’s voice is shut. Some people say that silence around people is awkward, but enjoying one another silence is the closest you can become with them. If your still not a fan of silence then got to sleep with the music blasting. Your appreciation of it will skyrocket.
