Peace and quiet is something that I have found to be a relative term. It all depends on what you are comparing it to. If the house is silent and all are in bed sleeping that that is peace and quiet compared to screaming kids and animals running around the house.
By contrast screaming kids and animals are peace and quiet when compared to the screaming ad yelling of the abusive spouse. That sounds strange that screaming kids would be considered calming. The reality is that it actually can be calming. If you look at it from the stand point that the kids feel safe enough to yell and scream and run around.
Everything is all in how you chose to look at it. I will happily give that after a day of yell and screaming kids your nerves will feel a bit frayed to say the least. Yet, the level of tension in the air will be significantly lower than it had been in the past.
When we feel frustrated with what is going on in our lives today. All we really need to do is to look at where we were just a short time before. Everything changes and when we work from a positive frame of mind the changes will also be positive. From day to day we may not be able to see the changes that happen yet they are happening. To see were you are headed all you need to do is see where you have been.
