the silence begins

At the age of twenty-four. I've recently learned some life's lessons.

1. being humble often gets us no where.
2. silence is everything, don't run your mouth.
3. your best friends, could quite possibly wind up to be your worst enemies.

Somewhere between the past and the present, I forgot to cross my t's and dot my i's. I became a babbler, hell I think I've even learned to enjoy the sound of my own voice. Sometimes I talk so fast, and so much my head spins after wards. In between the past and the present, I said a lot of things I honestly shouldn't have let fall out of my mouth. AND. They literally fell, with a big loud thud into the ears of anyone who would listen to my useless banter. At the same time, I never meant any ill will. It took me all this time to realize, that I never gave two cents about any of that stuff anyways. (well, maybe sometimes..but just the stuff that effected me) Even when it did effect me, I just wanted to be reassured that it did.

Essentially, I've spent a lot of time talking out loud. It's time for me to spend a little more time contemplating, being silent.
