ssshhhhh

low rhythms sound in my head.
the soft buzz of my laptop, the purr of my cat. the hiss of the heating system as it kicks in...my breath.
louder than all of them is the sound of my voice.
bouncing off the walls of my mind, my mental dialogue never ceases. conversations i have with my self are sometimes more exciting than those i have with other people...go figure. clearly i entertain myself. but when does it stop? how do i quiet the incessant chirp of my own voice? and why is it that i sound so much better on the inside?

sssshhhh....sssshhhhh...sssshhhhhhh - that's what i tell myself. some things are better left unresolved. some issues are better left in the hands of God, the only One who can help to resolve them. answers will come.

i know i will not hush my inner voice but i can limit my banter to the small stuff and leave the bigger things to Him.
