There is nothing like absolute silence, anywhere, anytime. The world is daily, hourly filled with new sounds and music. Every situation produces its own sound and music, unique to that purpose and time. Just listen at night when there is “absolute silence”. What do you hear in the “absolute stillness”? Snoring or coughing by your side or neighbor? A child crying out? Screech of Tyre on the tarmac? Or the sound of a driver leisurely cruising away? Something must be heard, if only your own breath, that makes the music and sound of that particular occasion.
It is another story in the morning as the world wakes up. It is different sound and music. People´s voices as they prepare for work. Cars warming up or starting off. You can feel the renewed energies of people getting ready for their daily activities with excitement or sluggishness, depending on which day of the week.
Getting into public transportation brings up new music and sound: Cell phones ringing with assorted ring tones. The voices of people in hush, the bus engine produces its own music, distinct and different from that of Trolley, or train, or tram. Even on the road in your own car, just roll down the door, each brand of car produces its own unique sound. Who does not know that the sound of a Honda is different from that of Mercedes Benz? The different speed of each car alone has its own unique sound and music, mixed to form jazz of the highway.
At the office, it is another story. The ringing phones followed by the voices answering. the hands on keyboards typing, photocopying machines and printers producing their own sounds. This is of course different from the sounds in the market place or shopping malls, restaurants or hotels.
Every occasion, event, has its own unique sound and music, changed every second; never to be repeated again.
Have you ever been in a forest or jungle at night? Even if it is man-made one. The owls and bats make their music, while the twilight´glowing wings have their discreet chirping sounds. In the morning, the music and sound change as other birds and animals join in the communal composition of jungle orchestra.
In life, there is never absolute silence. Is there silence at the sea, even if you are alone there? If all the marine animals refuse to make sounds, the wave and lapping of the sea will never seize. Yet those sounds are different from the ones coming from the rivers or lakes or ocean.
All these make one to wonder. Could it be possible that music and sounds are the mechanics, the propellers of creation? Could it be that they are deliberately set up by Master Creator- Jehovah, or whatever you call him for continuation of life? Could it be that sound and music are the fuels of life? The mechanics of our existence?
Yet it is wonderful to know that even each human being has unique music or song in him untapped and dormant. Check my resource box to see easy way of releasing the music in you.
