You Talk Too Much

      Men say that women talk too much.  I know that in my life I speak 1000 words as opposed to my husbands 10 words in a day! Or atleast it seems like that to both of us! He's a man of few words and I usually don't think I talk too much...except around my honey.

I am guilty of enjoying good conversation or good discussions.  But it's gotta be good! 

Sometimes talk is exhausting....Like when you have to convince somebody to do the right thing and they're too angry to do it...repeat, plead, beg...and you're not sure if they will....
Other times conversations lead to shady paths....Like when you start by telling your friend about an experience and somehow it leads to somebody elses experiences! and pretty soon you're submerged in the mire of gossip.
I love it when I leave a good conversation having come away with a gem.  Like when they tell me of a personal victory and I leave hopeful that I too will and can overcome.

Did you experience any of this talking?

Proverbs 12:25 "Anxiety weighs down the heart but a kind word cheers it up"
 Proverbs 10:19" In the multitude of words there wanteth not sin; but he that refraineth his lips is wise"
