Want to know why I don’t talk. It’s not because I don’t have anything to say. It’s because I get tired of being three, or four, or five sentences in only to realize the person I’m talking to hasn’t been listening and has no intention of doing so. It’s because I get tired of being spoken over because somebody else has something more important to say. It’s because I’m tired of being interrupted.

Why should I talk when nobody wants to listen? Why should I talk when what I have to say is so unimportant that nobody pays attention or lets me finish a thought.

My time has been unimportant for so long that it has just become normal. But every day it becomes more and more clear that my words aren’t important either.

I started this blog as a mind dump, a place where I could clear my head and write what I was feeling. So here it is, what you see is what you get.
