Fr. Eugene Hemrick on the Sounds We Hear

"The variety of sounds in a city is bewildering. Recently, I identified sounds I heard while standing on the corner of Connecticut Avenue in Washington, D.C.

"At the Metro station, a young man belted out music on an amplifier that could be heard for blocks thanks to high buildings ricocheting it.

"Then, there were the sounds of idling trucks and a firetruck barreling through intersections with horn blasts momentarily filling the air."

In a recent commentary, Father Eugene Hemrick reflected on the sounds we hear each day.
