Slow to speak.

So I think I am going to embark on a journey. I realized I talk, a lot. Too much too often.  I decided during a drive home that I want to listen more. I want to stop myself from forming opinions so quickly, throwing off handed comments about things. I want to try to have an open mind and not throw my two cents in when honestly it is rarely needed. So for this next month of February I am going to try to stay quiet. In the life I live I can’t take a complete vow of silence but I’m going to see what I can do. My thoughts and speech are getting in the way of me seeing how truly wonderful this world is and I want to see it!
