Internal monologues. To talk or not to talk, that is the question.
Some people like to talk about their problems whilst others hide theirs behind a facade. Nobody is entirely transparent whether they choose to share or not.
The problem with verbal communication is that it is not perfect. The listener often misinterprets what is being said because we process information through our own biases.
How often have you asked a question only to be given an answer completely off tangent or the other person jumps in to finish your sentence but gets it completely wrong?
Something to mull over.

TALK TO YOURSELF IN PUBLIC? ONLY WITH A CELL PHONE HANDY! 😀

Listening and hearing are two very different things and hard enough when face-to-face, but the bane of social media. Perhaps if we could get it right in the “real” world, the virtual world would be easier??

Agreed. We think we know what another is saying, or some/most of us do, but it’s colored by our own personality and life experience. Still, if we don’t talk, we will never learn to listen. Sometimes the cart comes before the horse, eh?
