Today’s comic is dedicated to quietude and those precious moments of tranquil outdoor meditation.
I could ramble on endlessly and overwhelm you with a litany of facts and figures about human sound pollution, but instead I’ll just let the comics do the “artsplaining.”
Now that you are thoroughly depressed, let’s take a moment to listen to a few soothing sounds of nature to help improve your mood.
First, strap on your headphones and listen to sounds captured from a trip to Maui.
Next, here’s a loop of bird songs recorded while hiking at Cape Disappointment State Park in Washington State.
I hope that’s relaxed you a wee bit and you can now enjoy your week.
I’d love to hear your opinion about this comic or about your favorite unspoiled places where you listen to nature.
If you’re seeing my comics for the first time and asking yourself “How can I support this guy so he can make more incredible comics?” The answer is simple:
I hope you find some Zen sounds
I used to practice Zen religiously (no pun intended), so the "silence is golden" idiom holds special significance to me. It reveals in me and clears the direct link to the divine.
