โYes. Iโm a bit quiet and I donโt share a lot of whatโs going on in my mind. But itโs not that Iโm afraid to. Itโs just that I donโt often feel the need to. I donโt share everything that crosses my mind because I know better than to believe everything that crosses my mind. I need to take my time. I need time to observe, to assess, to understand, and yes even to correct my thoughts before I let them flow out into the world. I need time because I understand and respect the power of words. So no, I donโt speak often and I donโt speak loudly. But at least you know that when I do speak, itโs going to be something I feel I really understand, something that excites me, that I believe matters, and that sounds true to my soul โ because to me, thatโs what speaking is actually for.โ
