Be Not Distracted or Disturbed By Their Noise | From Behind the Pen

These days we find ourselves saturated, annoyed, and overwhelmed when our peace is disrupted by vibrations of negativity coming from the dangerous polarization in our society, the wars, rumors of wars around the world, and targeted attacks on various areas of humanity. When those of us try doing the right thing by playing by the rules, we realize the rules have changed or we find out in the end that “the rules” never existed especially for a chosen group.

The noise echoing from these chambers of immorality, discrimination, dishonesty. and discouragement, unethical and wrongful doings can be staggering and piercing to the heart. For me, sounds and noise are different. Listening to sounds, whether it’s birds chirping, an instrument being played, or the crash of ocean waves is pleasing to my ears and a balm to my spirit. I welcome such serenades.

Noise on the other hand is what I equate with discouraging and damning words, hearing weapons and artillery being used to destroy others, or simply lower rating people is a noise that creates mass destruction and an anxiety-ridden spirit. I try to purposefully drown out the noise of disruption/destruction as much as I can and as often as I can if I find that the noise I have heard serves no acceptable purpose. Still, I listen to decipher the difference, so I will know how to approach with my response.

So today, if your spirit seems tormented by the “noise” of the world, whether you hear it, watch it, or read about it, try to tune it out and turn it off when you can. Then try to insert a sound or a visual that will be pleasing to your sight and peaceful to your spirit.
