Why do we feel the need to talk all the time?
Just because we have hammers doesn't mean we must always use them.
Just because we have cars doesn't mean we can't walk.
Just because we have computers doesn't mean we can't practice calligraphy.
Just because we have paint doesn't mean that we must fill in all the white space.

We must learn how to stop, breathe, think and observe
without constantly interjecting our own perspective.

That said, words are powerful tools.
Words are the magic spells you wish you knew
and as such, we must respect them and give them space.
Much like LSD:
the more you use them in rapid succession
the less potent they become to you.
The more callus our minds become.
The greater our tolerance becomes.
Diminishing returns are a bee-otch
when you want what you've already had.

Moderation is key.
