Gift(s) From The Home-Front

Five Minutes.
NO editing.
One Word Prompt.
It's called Five Minute Friday.


Linking up with Kate


AND GO:


It's been a blessing, to not blog for these many months. I haven't felt the need to share my thoughts, my heart, my passions. Sometimes I wonder if anyone hears them. But I know SOME do.


I've been trying to enjoy life, and see it for what it is.
Messy
Lazy
Hectic
Fun
Laughable
Stressful
Tense
Creative
Gift
Pleasure
Hard work


But even with all of this, the thoughts of my life still jumble on, tumble over each other, race to get out, only to be met with silence. A closed mouth. Silent fingers. Dormant tongue. Which is so not me, I can ramble my mouth off with the best of the auctioneers.


But holding one's silence is a must.
Withholding one's opinion is something we all should try.


Then when we speak...it's not drivel.
When we speak, it's well thought out.
When we speak, it's more of a gift, not a clanging bell...


AND STOP
