You Don’t Say

Most people have something to say, most people have an opinion. Most people talk too much about stuff they know nothing about. If you don’t know then you don’t know. But that doesn’t stop them from talking like they do. So, I just reply, “you don’t say”. But alas they still continue on and don’t even get my jest. I think words have been taken out of context and I think beliefs have been programmed to become fact. I love to have a deep discussion but only if a person can actually discuss it and not force their opinion or belief upon me. I have the same issue myself. I mustn’t think that I’m all right and correct or that I know everything because the only thing I truly do know is that I really don’t know as much as I think I do.

People all around me whether at work or in social settings talk, talk, talk. That’s what we do right? Yes, but talking about nonsense or talking out your ass isn’t really talking to me. It’s talking out your own ego and ignorance. Maybe I’m being ignorant even saying that? But I’d like to believe that I’m an open thinker. I’d like to believe that there is more to this world than just the living in the box life we think it is. There are some things that are just truth and fact and there are other things that we really don’t know. I can live with the fact that I have to breathe oxygen, but I can’t believe we were created from one Adam and one Eve. You don’t say. People say too much. And yet on the other hand people don’t say enough.

If there is something truly to discuss, to talk about, then say it. Please don’t hide behind feelings and thoughts and processes. Let it out and say what needs to be said. There are ways to communicate that actually edify yourself and the person you are talking to. But sadly, we don’t really communicate very well at all. You don’t say because you actually don’t say anything. Well, that doesn’t work either. Why is it so hard for people to talk? Why is it so difficult for people to have an intelligent conversation? I, for one, will keep on trying to reach the masses and also just reach for the one. One person can change the world. Do you have something to say, or will you continue with the premise of you don’t say? I say the choice is yours.
