To Write is to Live (Active) Forum Quiet

Prompt: What does the quiet sound like?

In my experience, it depends on my state of mind at the time. And, people vary with how much "quiet" they want in life. If writing or doing anything which requires concentration, any background noise tends to distract me; much more than for a more ordinary person (partly because I'm autistic). My ideas for any new stories or poems, certainly require a quiet environment for formulation. And, when reading a novel or short story; quiet is pretty vital too. What about other group members? Perhaps, you're almost the opposite way; and tend to avoid the quiet as much as you can? Maybe even, the quiet of total solitude is what you aspire to..? After all, we're all so different from one another in life; each of us being a unique personality...
