Yeah Write: Knowing Me


I swear! There are times when I want to stand up and scream. Scream louder than I ever have, well not really but close to it!

“NOTHNG IS WRONG WITH ME! STOP ASKING!”, but I don’t even though I get the question all the time. That’s not me and that’s not my temperament. I don’t stand up and scream anything. Ever. Would it help if I did? I don’t think so and you’d all freak out at the unexpectedness of it all if I actually did!

I hang out and I observe and I think.

There are a couple of things you can place bets on with me and win money every time if these were the wagering sort of things. 

I always have something to say; I’m just not saying it. 

I’m always thinking something; I’m just not telling you what that is. 

I’m always closely watching everything but I’m not judging, ever. 

I’m always feeling things; I sometimes don’t express them.

I assure you, though. Any time you ask me, when I’m quiet, which I often am, “Is anything wrong?” The answer will instinctively be “No”. And that’s the truth. Nothing is wrong, not with me.

I am not shy. I am not quiet. I’m actually the opposite of those things but you have to know me to know that. I don’t share with just anybody or everybody. You have to know me AND you have to do something...

If you know me and really “get” me, you will virtually have complete access to just about everything there is to know because you have asked the questions. It's as if there is a key that unlocks all this. It's a key to me and the key is questions.

If there are things that leave you confused, shaking your head, or wondering, all you have to do is ask. Point blank. I can’t thing of anything I would refuse to tell someone asking me directly and sincerely. I’m not hiding anything either.

Believe it or not, hardly anybody ever asks me anything. Why is that? I'm certainly not unapproachable. I'm kind hearted and friendly. I have a welcoming smile. But yet...

It’s not a secret; I’d rather talk about you. I’d rather ask you questions. I love to laugh about nonsensical things. However, I don’t thrive in the superficial. I despise it, almost. I love deep. The deeper and more meaningful the connection, the happier I am.

So, if you want to get to know me, ask me questions. I will always answer and truthfully.

And remember, when I’m quiet, don’t ask “What’s wrong?”

Instead ask, “What’s going on up there?”

I assure you that you’ll receive a very engaging response and we will begin to know each other.
