Since you're an audio guy, I think you'll understand when I say I don't think I've ever heard true silence. There's a ton of noise everywhere, even when we think we're in a quiet place.

That being said, I think I know what you're after here, and I won't waste time on the former.

Silence is almost impossible in my life. It's something I have to fight for. I try for at least 5-15 minutes of quiet prayer, pondering, and meditation every day. I don't always succeed at this - but when I miss it, I really MISS it. For me, that time is crucial to regroup, resync, and commune with myself and my god. It's a way baseline my day/week/year/life.
