Ever since I've read somewhere that the "universe is sound", I've been a bit more attuned to the subtle noises that always accompany silent moments of the day/night. How the disruption happens and how every sound roses from a silence and returns back to it.
It is said that sound, not light, was the first thing and will be the last. To echo that, it is said that sound is the first thing we become aware of in the womb, and it is the last sense to leave us when we die.
Right, right! I've heard of those too. It ups my reverence for sound and the human ears are said to be a really intricate and complex system.
