learning to live with just a few words

It might not seem so on the blog because I do let myself go here, but in my daily life, I am learning to live with just a few words necessary for the bare minimums in life. Don't talk much if you have nothing nice to say. Don't talk much because there is not much going on in your life. Don't talk much if everytime you do speak, your negativity spews forth. Don't talk much if you haven't seen much. Don't talk much if you haven't been much. These are tenets I have come to practice.

Its a matter of optics- a matter of how you see the world. I have started to belive that I cannot make an impact. If you can't make an impact, then you might as well shut up and stop yelling at the top of your lungs, you might as well just go through life standing in line for a bowl of pasta that in fact, is just a bowl of spaghetti with ketchup on it- might as well stop thinking of yourself as a goofella, and see yourself what you are, a man, just that, no more.

Settle for less words, and settle for what you do have. Live with a few words and just a few words will come back to hurt you.

What a ugly way to think- but it does soothe the wounds.
