“I can never calm them down. Other
than me no one can hear them but they are actually nerve racking sometimes.
They are soothing, disturbing and many a times they are just an incoherent
buzz. From dawn to dusk they talk to me punctuated by the hum of the washing
machine, beeps of oven , whistles of cooker, distant loud chatter and laughs
and so on so forth. They guide me, misguide me, tickle me, bring a
frown on my face but never leave my head. When I sleep I may be in smiles but my voices always travel miles”.

That's a good one, Afshan! True, nobody can hear our voices in the head but they are forever there... creating a cacophony of thoughts!

DeleteAfshan, you're so correct. Many times, I get lost, talking to myself. At times I wish I could shut them up, and not confuse me; but at the other times, I'm happy that they're there :)
