let's talk

i've always wanted to be one of those people who are so incredible at speeches, like martin luther king jr, obama, those people on ted tv. the more i try the harder it gets to be honest but i did manage to   reveal some of the secrets of those who are eloquent :
1) they talk alot or
2) they are clear -minded or
3) they read alot or
4) they watch alot of tv.

way to point out the obvious( i have the tendency of doing that)..
but seriously, i'm not a naturally talkative person. i can talk non -stop if i have to or when i'm with certain people, but i find talking very hard to do which is why i believe i was born verbally challenged. 

after giving much thought to it, i realise that, we really dont have much to talk about. we have much less to say than we acually think we do. like when i was catching up with a friend, i really dont feel like talking about my life and what i've endured because for one, if i've gone through some difficult times and survived it, i dont see the point in telling the story because i've made it through well and good. when something good happens, i dont wanna talk about it because i dont even want to give anyone the chance of thinking i'm gloating. ofcourse not everyone is that mean, but preventive measures beat the crap outta having to fix a complicated situation. 

furthermore, if you dont tell anyone anything, when something goes wrong, you have noone else tIo blame but your self and i personally feel being hard on yourself is better than blaming others for your weaknesses or mistakes. whatelse can we talk about? my interests? oh if only.. work?  boring.
food?i'd rather eat than talk about it. politics? too lazy to argue with varying opinions when you know you're right and by right i mean you're just as intolerant as everyone else invloved in that discussion.

i might have gone off tangent here, but i guess if i wanna be like martin luther king i gotta forget about a and brush up on b,c or d. perhaps I shoud forget about b too. was probably born a scatter brain.

i feel a little bit psychotic.
