This One's For Me

I am slowly learning to be silent. To listen more and talk less. It’s a tough one as I grew up with a mouth that likes to move and be listened to. I did not get listened to often enough as far as I was concerned. I liked to listen to people while thinking in my mind the proper answer to give them once they finished talking. That is not listening. There are also times I have learned to just be silent and let the other one babble because it would be kicking them when they are down or at the very least un Christ like to bash them back when they are bashing you.

It is hard to be quiet which I guess it why this is being typed. I need to express this somewhere and let the chips fall where they may? I don’t suppose it will hurt anyone’s feeling who may dare to read this as I am not speaking of any specifics or expressing frustration just stating a fact. I am learning, trying to learn to be silent when it is necessary to do so.
