RE: The World is so Noisy!

I think we become conditioned to the normal noises heard around the house to the point we "condition" them out in our minds. Sort of like also the basketball court across the street, its been there so long, you no longer hear the balls bouncing, or the chatter unless something else happens where they start arguing out loud. But overall, like as with the city and it's growth, noise pollution has become a huge problem. It's hard to ignore increasing police, fire, ambulances, police helicopter buzzing above, and hoards of traffic that comes with the population growth. Every time you turn around they are announcing another big housing complex, now a new soccer stadium, amphitheater, and humongous business/apartment all within a mile or two from my house. I am ready to go it's gotten so bad. The noise is horrendous, especially the traffic and cars racing down the highway at night because the police are two busy with emergency calls. They actually shut down the entire highway exchange the weekend before last, before the cops could get to them, they spun off to a mall where they did some doughnuts and someone was shot. I live in an open air environment with the park across the street and the highway a block and a half away, morning rush hour sucks, now the night time sky is filled. Time for an exit. I know there are quieter places that exist.
