spit it out

Filed Under internal monologue | 3 Comments

spit I am finding it hard to say what I feel. It’s right there, just below my vocal chords. I feel what I want to say but when I go to speak no actual words come out.

It just gets stuck, dammit!

I am not good at arguing and I am a terrible debater! It’s not that I don’t have opinions or a point of view, but I process information in a different way. Perhaps a slower way. I am lucky to be skilled at taking in and processing other people’s points of view, but it is often at my own point of view’s expense.

Grrrrraaaaawwwwwwhhhhhh!

    All this means is that you don’t drink enough… ;)

    Ha – probably true. I used to drink more.

    And I heart the quote. I’m printing and putting it on my desk. Thank you!

    I hate this feeling. When you know there is an opinion and an emotion that you feel very strongly – but can’t quite actually process it in a way that it comes out sounding like how you feel it! Frustrating!
