Talking to myself

How do we talk to ourselves? Most likely the conversation in our heads revolves around fears, complaints and mindless repetition of old stuff that we can't change anyway. At least that's what kept me awake when I couldn't go back to sleep at three this morning.

Today I was reminded that if we were to talk in this way to another human being, we would first of all have to apologise and secondly we would probably not have anyone to talk to for very long. Who wants to listen to this? Yet, we expose ourselves to it every single day. Thoughts from the past and worries about the future do no create good conversation.

So I've decided to have more interesting conversations with myself and see what response I get.
