Calm.

Peaceful.

One of the greatest sounds in the world, I really genuinely believe this, this is not me pandering

to anyone.

Hi, my name is Father Mike Schmitz, and this is Ascentra Presents.

I don't think there's any argument that one of the greatest sounds in the world is children

laughing.

And I mean like anyone from like, here's a kid who's, I don't know, six, eight years old, all the way down to if you have a baby, a baby laughing, it's the best sound. It is incredible. I would also make the case,

or at least I would also submit as a possibility that one of the worst sounds in the world

is a baby crying. I think I read somewhere that when they were trying to torture prisoners

of war, they would

actually just play on loudspeakers or pipe into the room that these prisoners of war would

be the people, these victims of torture, they would pipe in the sound of babies crying.

So we have missionaries on our campus who they have a baby.

And we love Camilla.

Camilla is her name. And Camilla is 10 weeks old right now and Camilla is awesome. Her parents are great but the other day

Camilla was was she was losing it. She was crying and I was thinking as I was sitting there

just hearing you know the inner mom and dad are taking care of her they're doing great. Why do babies

cry like just okay we love babies laughing it's painfully hear babies Just hearing, you know, the inner mom and dad are taking care of. They're doing great. Why do babies cry?

Like, okay, we love babies laughing.

It's painfully hear babies crying.

But why?
