Ep.10

I don't know what deafening silence sounds like.
I wish I did.
Even as I make a long drive home, there is far too much on my mind to enjoy the little silence I'm ever exposed to.
Then there's the rattle of the wheel, the vibration of the dash, the jingle of the change in the console.
And all the anxiety that simmers as I reflect on this exact moment last year.

I raced home. I wanted to get home to where I feel safe.
Peaceful.
Not quite.
Too many people. Too much noise. Too many things to do. Too little time.

I just want to sleep.
Sleep and silence.
Utter silence.
