Word Budget

Sometimes I feel like I only have a certain number of words allotted to use a week. It's a little bit like a budget and only having a certain amount to spend. I get a lot of words to use but I run out after a while. When I use up the words I have available, I quit talking much. It's not hard. I have lots of family and friends in my life who love to talk and don't notice when I don't have much to say. They have a much bigger word budget than me. It works out very well.

Sometimes I just get tired of talking and of writing and prefer to let others do it all. Sometimes, silence is nice too.
