truthfully...

i'm a believer that people who are close to me (friends and family) should read my feelings from my speech and body language...yes, it's ridiculous....i mean, heck, i read too much into things when i see my close friends or family (content of speech, from their body movement, facial expressions, tone of voice, details like that), i twist things around, thinking that things are more that they are...but hey, if that's how my world rocks, it works...err...i don't even know what blather i am talking about now...


anyway, i am an insensitive fool who wants people to understand the subliminal message that i send from my tone or subtle content in my response or my body language...but guess what?...people just don't care...i mean, come on....if you want to say something just scream it across... subtlety never, urhmm, rarely pays...if you want to tell you friends to buzz off, just tell them, respectfully mind you, to buzz off...if you want your parents to pay attention, repeat your message over and over, again respectfully...there's no need to be rude...


talking straight is the best way to communicate...but somehow, as we grow older, we are less prone to telling the truth and twist things around so much that the other person doesn't get what you really mean...i blame this on political correctness and respecting people's sensitivity and feelings...but realistically, i do this all the time...it's hard to disregard other people's feelings...i want people to take care of mine so i have to take care of theirs...


anyway, the take home message is, sometimes there are circumstances that we have to straighten our spine and do some straight talking...beating around the bush will only frustrate you further and make you want to pluck every hair follicle you have on your armpits and in the end of the day, the other person doesn't even get the whole point!...i admit i am cowardly, but sometimes, just sometimes, i do find the right words and say it...things don't get any easier or more difficult than speaking your mind truthfully...say it and the truth will set you free...or make an enemy out of an old friend, depending on the situation -_-"
