Voices Carry

Have you ever sat down to a quiet conversation, only to realize there are others listening? Or, have you ever listened to a conversation from the table next to yours? Would you change what you said if you knew somebody was listening? Obviously, blogging is an open book, but there are some conversations you want to be private and not interrupted. Yet there's always the knock at the door, the child that finds you locked in the closet on the phone, or the hush of conversation in a crowded room that leaves you public. Where can you go to get a little piece of quiet? Trust me, it's not the bathroom, the closet, or the back deck. They find you. So hush, hush, keep it down, down, voices carry.
