(1) I usually get up at six in the morning, sometimes at five or even four or three. Those wee hours are the only ones of quietude in my mind-torturing life. I always crave silence so much that I usually try to stay away even from music and movies, which I know are important.

(2) Ah, how ardenly I love these moments free of noise! Not completely free, though, because of those nasty cars constantly going by just in front of my apartment. But these noises of cars are far less awful than the shrieks of kids and the meaningless small talk of lazy adults.

(3) Is the world of death really free of such excruciating noises, I wonder? What if we have to go to a noisy world when we die? I don't believe in any religion, not in any afterlife either. I usually do believe that the dead enjoy silence.

(4) But what if we have to be constantly tortured by all that noise even after death? What if this hell we see here is less horrific than that world of death we may be going to? I really hope, of course, that death means total nothingness, free of noise, free of consciousness.
