Self Talk

Orphangelical

“You meet saints everywhere. They can be anywhere. They are people behaving decently in an indecent society.”

Kurt Vonnegut

“Every saint has a past, every sinner a future.”

Oscar Wilde

The very powerful and the very stupid have one thing in common. They fail to alter their views to fit the facts. Instead, they alter facts to fit their views.

Dr. Who

Bonnie and I were huddled at the tailgate. I was having a conversation with myself.

A passer-by going into the Grocery store said it’s okay to talk to yourself if nobody answers. We chuckled.

Then I realized that Bonnie as my companion is always listening. A dog gives cover to an old gent and his self talk.

And if someone says “That’s weird.” He can always say he was speaking to the Dog.

The reflective perspective: “Enough about me, Bonnie. What do you think about me?”

Now there’s some talk I might need to hear.
