Turning Down the Volume

Stop the Noise.Marc Johns [1]As I write this, the “neighbors” in the nearby building are blasting their TV. My hunch is that the husband in the couple is hard of hearing, because his wife is always yelling at him. They speak in Russian, so I don’t know what they’re saying. (It could be that she’s just angry.) I’m about to enter my weekly 24-hour zone of tranquility and would love for the universe to meet me half way. Wishing you all some peace and quiet.
