The Big Why

Is True Silence Even Possible, or Is the Universe Always Making Noise?

Silence sounds simple until you try to find it. We usually think of it as the absence of noise: no traffic, no conversations, no phone buzzing, no refrigerator humming in the background like it has a tiny emotional support motor. But the moment the world gets quiet, something interesting happens. You start noticing your breath, your heartbeat, a faint ringing in your ears, or the soft creaks of a room that apparently has opinions.
