(((just listening…)))

“i don’t know what to say” and “i have nothing to say” - common (recurring) enough thoughts; almost a felt state of questioning in conversation.

not “what do i want to say?” so much as “what am i supposed to say? anything specific? anything at all?

what (content) am i listening for? anything specific? anything at all?

am i (even) supposed to respond? how so? what’s expected here?”

i worry now that this sounds like distraction - wandering thoughts…

i worry that it may even appear so sometime…

and maybe so…
