OK, it has just dawned on me. I talk too much. I think out loud. I give too much information without regard to whether or not that information is welcome or necessary. That is the hazard of thinking aloud.
Unfortunately, that is part of who I am. Someone recently pointed out that I wear my heart on my sleeve. That is unintentional, but again it is who I am. One would think that would be a mind freeing way to go about life, but I find it to be cumbersome. (yes, I just wanted to say cumbersome) The problem for me is, that I get that instant release of thoughts, only to revisit those thoughts and the statements that they prompt, in my head after the fact .... and what is the saying about hindsight.... yea that's the one
I really gotta learn to process first and speak later......
But damn am I good at the speaking part
That's Just the Way It Is

I hear ya!! Ive seemed to have lost the filter between my thoughts and my words. Although....when it comes to things that Im told in confidence, the filter works. Its really strange!!! I must have evolved my filter into a new kind of filter. Fancy, eh?? Anyway, dont let it bum you out too much, I dont think its a bad thing in most cases. Its when other people take advantage of you and how you are that tends to bite you in the butt, not so much yourself biting yourself in the butt. Being honest and forthright with your thoughts is a trait that I like in people (when its used in a genuine manner such as how you use it, not in a drama invoking manner which is how other people use it).
