I don't like when someone has something on their mind and doesn't just come out with it! What good does it do to keep something to yourself and let it stew? I think it could be anything, positive or negative or just downright confusing news/thoughts/ideas/feelings, and one should just say it. Even if it is something that will bring your world crashing down, at least whatever it is will cease tearing you up inside.
So, friends, be brave and speak your minds! No worries if it isn't eloquently worded, or if it is crass or ridiculous.
I think this mini-rant stems from several conversations, and many more observed conversations, where people are just too 'polite' to speak their own opinions, which really just sucks! Who hasn't been that half of a conversation where someone agrees with you when it is most obvious that they have a completely different opinion. A step further, too many friends have kept their feelings (frustrated, romantic, friendly or otherwise) inside to the point of emotional wreck. It's funny to think we live in a world where people are scared of their own words that come out of their mouths organically, but write ridiculous extreme things in incredibly public digital places.
I'm sure I am guilty of not saying aloud the thoughts that are on my mind, but I can acknowledge this.
Challenge- Tell someone (stranger, friend or family) a ridiculous secret you've kept to yourself, or what you are thinking about at an exact point in time. Ready, go!
