How come it’s easier to write out our feelings to the whole world to read, but every day we hold them tightly to our chest when we are with those who love us?
A few weeks ago I met up with an old friend I hadn’t seen for over 20 years. I did something I don’t usually do and instead of just saying yes life has been interesting these last few years, I was honest and said it sucked!! I told her all about the bad and the ugly and yes I was scared, but I was no longer going to hide “me”. I think she was a bit shocked at my honesty and I guess in a way so was I. I even told her about this blog and gave her the link. People will say you need to be careful Dwight. You shouldn’t do this with xxx, or be careful discussing this type of stuff with xxx. To all of that, I say – F it! If they want to judge so be it. I don’t need that in my life anyway.
Some will always live in the matrix. I did for a very very long time.
Others have discovered what’s casting shadows inside the cave and have found the courage to get up, face the shadows, take the shackles off, and be Free again! (Plato’s Cave)

Really timely. My blog is all about people being completely honest about their experiences, all welcome as always. We should never feel bad about talking about how we truly feel, we owe it to ourselves, and the more we do it the the more others will do it as well. Big love X

It’s always healthy to open up & get it everything out of your system. Bottling up only hurts you mentally & physically.

I have often felt this and sadly do not have an answer… we are hiding behind the pen and keyboard maybe?
