My heart just wanted to reach out and hug you, though, when I read this. <br /><br />A few thoughts on truth: <br />"The wicked taketh the truth to be hard." - meaning if someone gets mad at you for your truth, then they are triggered by something INSIDE THEM that has little or nothing to do with literal YOU.<br /><br />My husband has said, "Sometimes you walk the line between truth and tact." meaning that some truths don't need to be said to all people.<br /><br />Also: protect yourself. If parents, elders, teachers and peers have reacted negatively to your truth, nowhere is it written that you have to reveal your heart to them time and time again, just so they can step on it time and time again.<br /><br />It is okay to keep some things and ponder them in your own heart until you find someone to share it with who will not be a butt about it. <br /><br />I hope you have someone like that, if not today, then someday. Because I can see that your heart is tender and loving and wonderfully valuable. <br /><br />Have a beautiful day.Sayyadinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18104330021640585094noreply@blogger.com
