So the above is an entertaining feature of sound. It's more entertaing though when reading about it then when you're hearing random conversations at night in the back yard and the closest sign of human life other than the house is hundreds of meters away.

Re: night + sound = paranoia
On the trail, whenever I was camping by myself, every sound I heard at night was a bear, outside my tent, getting ready to eat me. -
Re: night + sound = paranoia
Haha I kept swearing I heard wolves outside our tent. Bears don't scare me much, but wolves work together! There were two of us and consciously, I knew there were no wolves there (they're shy where I'm from), but it didn't mean that every time I heard noises, my first response wasn't "Wolf!"Originally posted by ThePaganMafia View Post
Probably didn't help that we could hear them howling in the distance allll night.Comment

Re: night + sound = paranoia
I wasn't really aware of it till last night when I toned down the "Why the hell are people wandering near my home talking on a phone at 11:30 PM?" and remembered another instance of hearing that I normally wouldn't be close enough to catch so I went looking for whether sound at night behaves oddly.Originally posted by thalassa View Postlife itself was a lightsaber in his hands; even in the face of treachery and death and hopes gone cold, he burned like a candle in the darkness.

Re: night + sound = paranoia
Fear breeds paranoia, preparation brings peace. Sometimes it is easier to say than do and sometimes we get surprised but you can prepare for almost anything and practice your actions in your mind. In this way your fear becomes a useful tool and you remain calm because you have "lived through it" already.The Dragon sees infinity and those it touches are forced to feel the reality of it.
