I'll never forget this moment in my life. It stuck to me because I learned something from it.

As I was removing the shitty radio in my 20 year old Defender, one of my mechanics asked, "Alex, what do you listen to when you drive?"

When I told him I don't listen to anything, he was a bit shocked to hear this. "How can you stand listening to your own thoughts?" I shrugged it off and didn't think much about it.

I realised later on that some people who constantly listen to music isn't always only because they love music but it is to drown out their thoughts. I do believe music has healing powers but muffling thoughts isn't healing.

I learned that my thoughts, they work for me and not against me.

I will often listen to something to get to sleep otherwise my brain goes off on all the work I didn’t get done today and all the things I have to do tomorrow which I find very stressful.

Oofff I can't do the noise when I sleep. I prefer quiet, cold, and dark. I live in the mountains so there's all sorts of nature sounds depending on the season, which I think is actually relaxing.
