When I'm on the phone, my wife is always telling me to keep my voice down. It must be that if the other person sounds quiet to me, then I must think I sound quiet to them.
If I make eye contact with someone, I can usually tell by their body language that I am speaking too loud.
Geez! with hearing loss, eye sight dimming, teeth falling out, hair falling out, heart attacks, strokes, dementia, arthritis, not getting your leg over the pillion seat any more, growing old may be an achievement, but comes at a cost.
