Express Yourself

Although I subconciously knew this before, I came to realize over this past week that I do not express myself very often. So many times I will think things or feel things, but until someone else says what they are thinking or feeling, it rarely crosses my mind to do the same. For example, if someone does something different with their hair (cut or style or whatever), I will see it, think to myself that something is different, decide that it looks good (usually), but not say anything. This doesn't happen all the time, but it does happen most of the time. Or if I see someone doing something nice for someone, or hear them saying something nice to someone, I smile inwardly then continue with what I'm doing. I think it would be good to express myself more often in these types of situations.

That kind of goes with something else I was thinking about this morning. I am an observer. I find that I pay attention to the things that people do and say more than the average person, and I tend to remember the things that I observe, even though I don't often realize it. So when I think about people and don't think that I know what's going on in their lives, I find that when I am asked about those people, I actually know more than I realized. It is strange.

Anyways, that's enough rambling for this morning.
