It's All Connected...

I see...

Indentions...

In my tongue...

As I stare at them, I begin to wonder...

Where did these come from? How long have I had these?

Is this normal?

Then...reality settled in...my shoulders dropped...and

I sighed...

Could this be the result of holding my tongue so

much that I bite it...

In my sleep?

I may be very random yet my mind

sees all in a linear model...

All connected, even things that create their own path...

So...I connected the dots,

developed a Hypothesis, collected data and compared

it to a control group; Varied variables and conserved

constants who consistently revealed iirrefutable evidence

that as I "handle situations very well" and "seem to always

be calm" or "am rarely upset over anything" and despite

my best efforts to relieve stress...

I internalize emotions in abundance

Causing involuntary muscles to contract

From the pressure of tension, possibly

Piercing layers of tissue that I need for tasting...

No wonder when I get upset

I lose my appetite...

I do not wish to be seen as a "Know-it-All" or

Anyone of the sort...

I know enough to know I don't know nearly as much

As I would like, yet quite often I know more than

Enough to share with others, thus providing

Catalysts for epiphanies to ignite a flame of change;

A restructuring of realities if you will...yet...I choose

To keep things to myself...

Although I may do so, I'm not a fan of

repeating myself. I'm not a fan of pity parties even

if I have had my share in the past.

I choose to live my days in the most positive ways

I can imagine...so...I take a little extra time to choose

My words more carefully...

Sometimes my words are clear to me and not others.

Other times my words are unclear and can not choose any...

For the time being...

Lastly, for now, some aren't ready to

accept These verbal expressions as genuine

aids to Improving life, understanding or a particular

situation. I consider this because the rejection of

some truths Can be quite disturbing and disruptive

to a Relationship--for lack of a better word...so...

Instead of creating these possible outcomes...

I bite my tongue...figuratively...

And now I see, I bite it literally...
