April Rain and Internal Lives
There is quite a nice shower happening outside and it is even nicer because I wasn’t expecting it at all. I was saying just today that I quite miss the days of steady rain that we used to have in my not-so-distant childhood.
In other news I notice that if you talk as much as I do (and I know I talk an awful lot) people assume that they know everything you know. Now I hate to burst anyone’s bubble but, just speaking for myself, the vast majority of what I know and think remains between my ears. None of it is so terribly dark or interesting that it couldn’t see daylight. I guess most of what troubles me simply has no solution or interest to anyone else. Talking about such matters either does nothing or makes matters worse so I generally don’t. And of course lots of it is sheer nonsense and the world has enough of that.
Lesson for the day – it would be nice if rain and water really did wash problems away.

I had to dash outside and rescue my washing, but it was only a sprinkle.
And perhaps you are saving it for your next album?
I’m very envious that you can keep up a steady banter no matter what. I can’t do that. I can’t multi-task
sometimes i think blogs give people a false sense that they know what is going on for the writer … i know you’re talking wider than that, though.
We are finally coming out of a lot of our rain and I’m hoping for a bit of sunshine – this weekend looks promising!
I am a huge talker and it is often about what is going on in my head. It’s one of the main reasons that I can get so crazy when I let friends/community get too far out of reach (and hence, why I really shouldn’t do that). I’m realizing that I don’t do myself any favors by keeping it all circling in my brain – it just doesn’t seem to do me a lot of good. However I also understand what you mean about the talking sometimes making matters worse so…
Life is complicated… but it does always seem to work itself out. xo
