I have been making videos lately as in told you in one of my earlier discussions. most of them have been around waterscapes. I live far away from any water body and water is the most calming sound to me.
I visited my ex employer on some work a few weeks ago and enjoyed the artificial lake created by them and all the lovely arrangements they have made around it . Just sitting there and closing my eyes never fails to transport me to a different and beautiful world.
I am planning on getting a small fountain installed in my living area.
Do you love the sound of splashing water? Do you have a fountain inside your home? Would you like to have one if you don't have it already?

@DianneN well if I had to pick I'd go with the warmer climate too while winter is having it's final say.

I love the sound of running water. We have a small brook that runs along our garden. It comes down from the hill in front of us and it forms a small waterfall just before turning right to our garden. I always hear the sound of running water.

I love the sound of gurgling and splashing water. I really like fountains. I would love to have a fountain but do not have the possibility. There is a fountain for kids to splash in near a park here.

@WorDazza LOL No I don't think I came from those wriggly thingies... I came from the dust of the Earth and the breath of God. The Bible talks about living waters.. which is the word of God from which everything came into existence. .. Maybe you don't believe it.

Water bodies ate wonderful places to be at peace at. No fountains or anything in houses where I live but always some natural water body nearby.

@responsiveme You are so lucky, I wish I could move to a place where there is a gentle stream.

Yes I love the sound of running water. Looking at cascading water has also a therapeutic effect.

@florelway Absolutely. Looking at an aquarium is also said to be very calming.

@sofssu you are right. My Chinese Friend once told me to keep a glass of water inside the bedroom.

@florelway The Chinese are particularly very superstitious about these things I guess.

I like the sound of running water as long as it is not a leak somewhere. My neighbors over the back fence have a fountain feature in their yard and I can hear it all summer long. That and the wind in the tops of the trees makes a very soothing sound.

I also love that sound and want a fountain in my home. =)
We have a stream here next to our home and I love sitting near it to listen. So peaceful.

@sofssu I spent over a year in a city that is known for its perennial water scarcity
Ever since that experience, waking up at 3 in the morning to store water, I have always been conscious of how precious water is.
The quote can also be “Those who drink the water should never forget those who dug the well.”
That drives home the very basic of life - to be grateful for our blessings. We know who dug the very first well - siva

The sound of soft running water is indeed soothing. We don't have any fountain inside or outside our home though.

@sofssu I'd love to but that would be an additional expense to maintain :) Anyway, I can listen to the sound of the waves at the seaside instead where I usually go after my early morning walk :) The sound of running water though is more soothing :)

Love the sound of a babbling brook and waves on shores. When the tv program has a scene of a beach I hope to hear the waves breaking. Can't have a fountain in my apt. home, but sounds so nice. How will the maintenance be for an indoor fountain?

@oahuwriter Nothing much , just a slight cleaning once a month and maybe filling water too. These small table top ones are great for apartments.
