People have forgotten the utility of words. They’re just tools. We now live in an age where people merge soul and words. An inability to detach the self from words spoken. Or maybe it’s always been this way.

Your last question is 100 percent on point brother! When we speak to ourselves (in our head,) what’s actually going on there? We jump around from picking ourselves up to judging others and even judging ourself in our mind. What’s the purpose other than being an illusion; a distraction. That’s the time to let it all go. Be still and know.
