SPEAK

We all have something to say... We all believe that... or at least portray that belief because we all speak. Whether it be the sarcastic things we say, or the latest xanga we published. We are all sweating words into the huge bucket of life. What makes one's words more important droplets of words? Does it even matter? Do I have anything to say worth saying? With so many people giving their drops, doesn't it just seem pointless? Should i write this posting for tonight? Is it anything that hasn't been said already? Does it even matter if it was said already? i feel like it does. i don't know if that feeling is justified through out the logical evidence that we have labeled as "an argument". Personally, i say, "screw logical evidence." i mean language is limited no matter how logical your evidence is. Otherwise, we could prove EVERYTHING, and that wouldn't be so much fun. Oh, it would be easier for our greedy little minds, but not fun.


i would say, "just listen," but with everybody listening, who would speak? God? i don't know.
i would say, "speak when spoken to," but too many people feel as if they're being spoken to, whether by the latest t.v. show or by motivational literature or by God.
i would say, "speak when you have something of importance to say," but everyone thinks they have something important to say, and that's just a mean thing to demand. Plus, i'm not the judge of that.

so, i am saying, speak. Speak instinctively. Speak even if it sounds stupid or trite to you, for you do not know who is listening. Speak out of your heart, out of your pain, out of your joy, out of your life. Speak. Whether it be on paper, online, in conversation, in a class, or in front of an audience. Whether you know what to say or you don't. Speak, for you never know the ripples that your pebbles of words may cause.
shalom.
