silence Silence is the most important thing It's what renders headphones and earbuds and headsets one of the greatest inventions of the modern world The ability to enjoy entertainment without disturbing those around you Silence It's important to know this about it cuz unfortunately some of the lessons about the importance of silence are taught by the most extreme teachers Myself and a friend of mine had been taught the lesson by such a teacher We were twelve and thirteen and he got a new gaming console for his birthday and we spoke with another friend to lend us a cool game, some shooter I stayed over the night and we started playing and the TV was quite loud The game was fun We were loud and there were bangs and explosions and guns firing and screams and flashes and suddenly the door of the bathroom bangs open with a kick and my friend's grandfather storms into the room with froth about his bleached lips and he grabs my friend's arm, twists, and pins him to the ground and holds him there as he looks around the room with crazed eyes, more scared than both my friend and I I think what's worse is that the old man was previously on the toilet using it and he got up without wiping or washing his hands and came into our room like that My friend's father came when he heard the commotion and dragged the old man away and left us mute and shaken we didn't say a word until he came back a few seconds later and lectured us about PTSD but I guess the real moral of the story is that silence is important and headphones are really one of humanity's greatest inventions

hahahaha Funny, but I had a dream about being the only person in a huge room to be wearing ear buds. Maybe this is why. 🙂

I agree with what you say but it is also important to remember that when we wear headphones we become isolated from others. We were not created to be an island unto ourselves. Time in silence should not be forgotten but making time for intentional relationships is equally so.

Especially NOISE CANCELLING headphones! Far too many times, trying to get silence is very difficult, the bigger the city! (Also noise cancellation WITH music helps the quality of sound go up!) Totally agree!😁

All headphones are good for me. I appreciate people who use them instead of blasting their music in public (•̀ᴗ•́)و ̑̑

Hey I know this is off topic but I was wondering if you knew
of any widgets I could add to my blog that automatically tweet my
newest twitter updates. I’ve been looking for a plug-in like this for
quite some time and was hoping maybe you would have some experience with something like this.
Please let me know if you run into anything. I truly enjoy reading your blog and I look forward to
your new updates.

Not to mention they save us from the type of neighbors who blast loud music like they’re the only people on the planet (somehow it’s always bad music they blast).
