sometimes I want to

sew my lips lol

I talk too much... but it seems like as if there were a daily dose or quotient of words, so I have to use it up before going to bed... or I just become fidgety.

I've been trying to fix(?) this problem(?), but if I manage to shut my mouth up for a while then I find other means to get it (a desire to talk, talk and talk) out of my system. Such as blogging, texting people, calling them, etc.

Sometimes the desire results in something quite artistic(?) and productive, like I was awarded with poems I have composed or I've written some short stories and put them on the net and people read them and I was asked to write a story for publication by a publishing company, which I turned down because I wasn't very positive that I would be able to meet the deadline lol (They wanted to me update each chapter biweekly) I never do well with set up timetables, schedules 😢

I think it probably has something to do with me being gemini sun (gemini-cancer to be exact) and having gemini mercury.
I always loved reading books, writing stuff and just expressing my thoughts, feelings, and emotions via communication.

People enjoy listening to me, because I tell them interesting stories and funny jokes... but then the downside is that I, at times, come across being never serious... lack of gravitas? I do become and am capable of being serious, but then people ask as if they were shocked 'something's wrong with you?'

However, the bigger and more serious problem is that sometimes I say something which I regret later :/
People around me are kind and know me enough to understand that that something I said wasn't mean to hurt or upset them, never bad intentions - they thankfully understand that I just like talking and at times get carried away. Wonderful people! 🙂

But I would really like to improve on it. I wouldn't want to hurt any one's feelings. Never.

So any geminis troubled with being a big mouth? How do you work on it? Advice? How can I talk less? :O

lol apparently English isn't my first language, so please excuse bad grammar and such 🙂

I think that might be the downside of being mutable and ruled by Mercury. But there is two of us....🙂
