thought #106- let's talk

i miss a good conversation. where two people pay no attention to the location, situation or constraints of time, but converse about everything and anything that life is affiliated with. i miss laughing at stupid memories and being emphatic over aches. i miss "don't tell anyone but" and the little revelations that come with it. the moments can be frustrating, embarrassing, exciting. sometimes we are just eager to be heard and other times we are keen to merely listen.

but i guess i never truly understood or missed a good conversation until i knew what it felt to be silent or silenced. sometimes conversations are meant to be trivial, sometimes we are meant to laugh off hurts and fears and whims. sometimes they are profound and need much more than "ok" to elucidate. to value the human heart speaking, you must appreciate the human heart in silence. weird i know.

somethings are actually better left unsaid or unspoken, others are "speak now or forever hold your peace." i guess it all comes with wisdom. i guess one day we have to finally become tired of not speaking up. i guess one day we need to get over ourselves and say what needs to be said and talk about what needs to be talked about. i guess one day we need to have the courage to say let's talk even when we don't want to. or have enough time to call that friend and update each other on the adventures of life. or have enough love to not give up on unspoken not-really-closure closure. whatever it is.

for me, i guess my one day is today.
so world- friends, strangers and everyone in between; let's talk.

love,

ps. haha made me laugh. so random
