I first saw this prompt as the “sound of silence” and went to the Simon and Garfunkel song which is one of the first I can ever remember hearing. As a night wanderer always seeking dark, this song resonates with me.
Hello darkness, my old friend I've come to talk with you again
There is nothing I like more than a dark black night and the silence that often comes with it.
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light - that split the night
Bah humbug on people who use security lights that light up the night just because you pass by on the sidewalk.
Here is a place I enjoyed dark and quiet nights in Northern Thailand a few years ago. If not for the dogs...
People up there often asked me if I was afraid to be alone in the dark like this. No I wasn’t. My empty resort home was one of the nicest stops I have had anywhere in the world.

In California I heard sirens a lot in the night and in the days. They howl obnoxiously there.
In SE Asia they only use sirens when they have to. For example they might pop a noise at a cross street or to get through heavy traffic.
I used to have to call the ambulance a lot when I was so sick in California. This often happened late at night because I was trying not to have to go to the hospital again.
I learned to request to the dispatcher that the sirens to be turned off. No need to wake up the neighbors when you don't have to.
"Yes, I'm ambulatory." Even if I wasn't. They would know what to do when they saw me.
Now you have my tip if you ever find yourself near death when other people are sleeping who have to go to work in the morning.

Statistics say that only 5% of people with health resolutions for the New Year will still be on track after Super Bowl Sunday. Is your fitness equipment still out handy, and are you still on a "diet?"
I lost "Half My Size" eight years ago by using natural methods. I started on December 5th and did not give up. You can do it too!
