Random sounds
What makes you anxious? Not the major items which affect all of us but the simple things in life. I’m going to put this out there. I just like wind chimes. Each element taken by itself is anodyne. Even with two of them you can in some ways anticipate what comes next. But, if you place a large number of random sounds together it does not create music. Something like that old idea that 1000 monkeys with 1000 typewriters could produce something useful to society. The wind chimes never get there. And as I get older I have noticed that our memories are a little bit like those chimes. We all have a lifetime of moments and unless you are slowly sinking into madness all of the elements do not rise to the surface at the same time. We can plan a little bit of where we want our stream of thoughts to go. However once that whole memory buffer starts to fill up moments slip out. Suddenly we find ourselves recalling a time or a place or a person that have not been in the view for ages. In that sense we are a little bit too close to the randomness of wind chimes. Perhaps I am too much of an introvert. Hours of time spent with my own memories as the main data stream. We do not invent memories. We do tend to give importance to the ones that have affected us personally. But if your thought process is make you think that wind chimes would be a good addition to your environment seek advice. Someone, near you, might have a different perspective.
