It sometimes feels that we create as many distractions in our lives as we can to stop us having to really think. How many times have you thought "it's too quiet I must put some music on"? Or you come home, put the TV on and then go off into another room. I think the background noise is just there to stop us really thinking.
Try some silence and see what your mind brings up. If it's something disturbing then don't just block it out again - explore it as much as you feel safe doing and then by familiarity it becomes less of a disturbance. Maybe after a time you will be comfortable with some long periods of silence and be able to sit with no thoughts.
