I left my balcony sliding door open so I could hear the surf, thinking it would lull me to sleep. About halfway through the night I gave up and shut the door -- the surf was too noisy and was keeping me awake. Regarding the white noise of life, you're right. We can't cry all the time. A little white noise to drown out the painful noise is sometimes just the ticket. Once, on a business trip, I stayed at a hotel on the beach near Melbourne, Fla.

I've tried the environmental CDs--Caribbean Surf, Rain Forest, and Distant Thunder sounds, but my fav is the fan. Give it try if you have one. Set it on low and see if it helps. I'll comment separately on the other topic.
