stop feeling the need to always express and explain

Its a bad habit I guess but I always paint a picture in words leading into many mundane daily conversations and interactions.
It is not necessary in most cases.
Tell people what you have to and get on with life.
I guess its an insecurity trying to pre-qualify their acceptance.
In reality people see you the way they want to see you or experience you and you cannot force an opinion.

getting way better at this. i can actually keep my mouth shut, and believe it or not, its making people listen to me more when i actually have something of importance to say, and im wasting alot less time trying to explain why i am the way i am, and maybe it even makes me look more mysterious…

couldnt hurt.

failed attempt #1

if this is a bad thing or not. It’s more just a hassle and I keep telling myself I don’t always need to explain where I’m coming from, especially if I’m writing for myself. I think I always feel the need to explain what I mean because I don’t want people to get the wrong impression. It’s the basic need to be understood, which is lacking in my life right now.

So, note to self: figure out why I do this, and figure out what it means.
