Confession

I’m a hummer. Most of the time I don’t even realize that I am doing it. I hum when I walk, or when I’m doing housework, when I am gardening, or in the shower – or really anytime that it is quiet. I hum.

I have all my life.

The other day I wondered WHY I hum, and if I am just really weird – ha. So, I took the time and I googled what it means to hum a lot.

The sites I visited online offered two main reasons for lots of humming. First, it is a stress reducer. And, yes, I get that, and I think it is something I subconsciously do to stay calm. The other reason listed said that humming is an expression of satisfaction and happiness. So, I’d like to think that is why I hum too.

If you are wondering, do I hum a specific song? No. In fact when I realize that I am humming it is my only little song that I make up as I go.

Somehow I am wired to create music in my head, be it for a sense of even rhythm, to relax myself, or to ‘have a song in my heart” to feel good – and what I always thought was quirky now makes me feel special.
