STFU!

All those written letters can actually be quite romantic and almost as complicated as soap operas. Nouns secretly looking for adjectives, verbs being almost useless just standing alone and all those funny grammatical rules making such a good entertainment for some and such pain in the ass for the others.

Like people, some words are just more lovable than the others - some we are easy to love while others we persistently keep on forgetting. Quite sissy in their shape yet powerful as weapon: today words seem absolutely necessary and logical. Especially politicians are mouthful of big and important words, full of future and prosperity. Well, yeah, all right, whatever. A little less conversation, a little more action...

Sometimes I am wondering if talking isn't overrated. Can’t undo what you said and can’t always predicts what it will cause. Are there any words without consequences?

What if we could really speak without taking and hear without listening, like The Sound of silence suggests? What if most of talking is a waste of energy? If we stop speaking….would that make the world a better place?

Probably not but it surely would make it much more quiet and easier to fall asleep….
