It is what you do not hear that is so important.
Listen closely; you will not hear the sound
of traffic, the sounds of a city, and
the sounds of industry.

Rather, you will hear the young foal call
for its mother, the stallion challenging one of
his stable mates, the endless melody of
the birds singing, or the occasional
"moo" from a young calf.

You will hear the unmistakable sound of tranquility, where
time is slow, and the world is in a more natural state.
