Story
Modern life has become such that we all are suffering from information overload. There is a constant bombarding of data, most of which is unsolicited. This creates clutter in mind. Our mind is constantly processing information which it doesn’t even need. Our lifestyles are such that we find ourselves in a constant decision-making dilemma. From choosing the shirt to wear for office to the things to have at lunch, we are constantly faced with the problem of making insignificant choices. These decisions may not look like much, but they keep our mind engaged.

too loud for helping you get to sleep
The stories in the book are probably nice. But I want something to help me get to sleep, not something dramatic with big changes in volume.
