You know how the young of today ride around in their car with the radio turned up about as loud as it will go. Well, I believe they do that to shut out reality. The ultra loud booming practically negates all thought so worries are not to be.
I don't know how many species of birds I hear on my early morning walks but there are many. Their favorite time of the year is just about upon them. Makes them all practice their, hopefully to be enticing, come hither tweets. If I don't ignore them, being so many varied loud sounds, it semi-produces the same in-ability to think as the ultra loud radios.
A couple days ago during my stroll I caught myself able to think and during that process it came to me that I had heard only two birds and one of them was a crow that you should be able to hear two counties over. Thinking can allow worry so I began to worry that a huge calamity was near upon us and the birds were somehow able to feel this and had gone into hiding. A few other worries pushed that one aside as I walked on down the road.
I don't know how it came to my attention but wham! I realized that I had failed to put my hearing assisters in that morning. A nice relief about the no calamity but I wasn't aware of just how bad my hearing was. Some things I know I can't hear, like smoke detectors, but gee, if you can't hear a thousand birds singing you're darn near deaf!
So that's my story today.
