Page 93 - Hear, listen! Well, I found this prompt very similar to one a few weeks ago, so had to think hard. Apart from the hearing but not really listening I thought of all the noise of modern living, how much noise there is in our lives. Whirs and hums of household equipment, car engines, lorries, aeroplanes, trains, mobile phones ringing with annoying tunes, MP3 players, loud music in shops and restaurants, people shouting. I could go on and on............. All these sounds drown out the pleasant ones, birds singing, children playing, wind in the trees, gentle sound of raindrops..........

I will hear all these noises but listen for the pleasant ones! Very occassionally there is the sound of silence, and I savour it!
