I think that too often we won’t tell people
how we really feel
because we’re afraid to hurt their feelings.
We don’t give people enough credit
and we say how much a person can handle
It’s not up to us
Tell your truth
people are strong enough
to handle it
And if it does hurt their feelings
guess what?
they’ll get over it
and might even later tell you
“Thank you”
for sharing that with me.
And if their feelings aren’t hurt
you’ll get over it
when you have enough strength
and you’re ready
to make a change
and to do something
different
you welcome it
because you know
that when this comes
it’s just a test
and you determine the outcome.
