noise cancelling technology
Ahh the things that people invent are amazing. I recently tried out a friends head phones with “noise cancelling technology.” Have you heard of this? They are amazing. You put them on your head and turn on your music. Good sure, like any other headphones. But there is this little switch.
When you turn the switch, something happens. The headphones emit a sound wave that is an anti-wave to much of the back ground noise around you. Really. The noise of an airplane and the sound of the people talking around you disappears. Their mouths move, but no noise is coming out. Just the turn of a switch and the distractions are gone.
And so I have an idea. If I wear them all the time, will all of the noise of life disappear? No more sadness, no more anger, no more worry, no more concerns, no more unhappiness. Now that would be an invention wouldn’t it?
And some how I know our Father offers this. Jesus said, "come unto me, all ye who labor and are heavy laden and I will give you rest." Just a turn of our focus and the distractions are muffled. The noise of life is replace with a quiet peace. This is the gift of God to all who ask. As the old song says, “turn your eyes upon Jesus, look full in his wonderful face, and the things of earth will grow strangely dim in the light of his glory and grace.”
It’s a beautiful day in God’s world, be sure to see the good.

Would you mind asking your friend whether he's tried this thing out in most restaurants. If the headset makes it possible to hear no sounds except those you're trying to carry on a conversation with at your table, that would be great.
