Lesson Learned

I learned a very difficult lesson last week.

Sometimes it's better to say nothing.

Words can be hurtful, even when their meanings aren't meant to be mean;
they can be hurtful.

Whether angry, frustrated, or you've just let things build up inside you.

Watch what you say.

You may not think they're listening but words have a way of getting around,

And especially getting around to who they're about.

I learned that it's better to talk about your frustration than to bottle it inside.

It's ok to be frustrated but it's not ok to say hurtful things because if it.

Yes, people say things they don't mean but there's a way to prevent that.

One: talk it out when you're sad, mad, frustrated, disappointed, whatever it is.

Two: Thumper was right. If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all.

I learned that the hard way.

Also, don't take advantage of people who love you.

You may think the world is out to get you, no one likes you, "woe is me"

But you're wrong.

So very wrong.
