Tongue - Untied

I have one small problem. When I am asked a question first of all my brain gets clamped and I start thinking about a lot of stuff. And hence the answer to probably a one line answer would come out as a whole essay of stuff lingering in and around the topic in the question. May be this behavior stems out of being asked lots of essay type questions in the Indian educational system ;). After entering research I decided to get over this problem and try to be as concise as possible. Try as I did, this problem didnt get over.

But there was an incident when I succeeded. Once during lunch someone asked me a question and I replied in just one line. But out of habit I wanted to continue more and was on the verge of getting entangled into my disconnected and boring set of statements when I realized done. I had answered the question. There was nothing more to say about that topic to that person at that moment. The realization brought a sudden sense of achievement and fulfillment. At that moment and at that time a smile came on my face and the person whom I was chatting with was wondering what was so amusing about the question. Ah! what a moment it was!

But that moment and time passed and I am back to elaborate and confused self that I begun with. Trials to be concise still persist...
