Omschrijving
We live in a loud world.
Not always in sound, but in thought—unfinished conversations, constant notifications, the quiet pressure to stay busy even when nothing is wrong. Many of us move through comfortable lives feeling restless, distracted, and mentally tired without knowing exactly why.
Quiet Water, Loud Thoughts is not a book about escaping that noise.
It's about learning how to listen to it differently.
Through a series of reflective essays rooted in time spent fly fishing, John Boyd explores what happens when attention slows down and the mind is given space to settle. On the river, there is no urgency to produce, no demand for constant progress—only movement, patience, and presence. The lessons that emerge are subtle, practical, and surprisingly durable.
This is not a how-to book. You don't need to fly fish—or want to—to find yourself here. The river is a lens, not a requirement. What matters is the experience of learning to be fully where you are, without forcing silence or chasing outcomes.
In these pages, you'll find:
Reflections on mental noise and modern busyness Stories of missed fish, long waits, and quiet mornings on the river Insights on patience, attention, and letting go of constant measurement A gentle reminder that stillness doesn't require answersQuiet Water, Loud Thoughts is written for readers who feel overwhelmed in ways sleep doesn't fix. For those who crave calm but don't want another self-help book. For anyone who senses that slowing down matters, even if they're not sure how to begin.
This book doesn't promise transformation.
It offers something quieter—and often more useful.
