inside each person there are so many thoughts that do not see the light of day. Thoughts like ‘i think i look good’, ‘i think you’re stupid’, ‘i know i’m better than you but oh, why are you so blind to think yourself so great!’, ‘humility is what matters’… thoughts like these do not hurt, and i’m sure every girl had thoughts like ‘hah, i look better than you’ *smug*. Thoughts like these are probably much truer than what we normally say. Yet the thoughts do not smell breath because we are so afraid of what other people will do, will say, will think about who you are. Is it true that if I actually say what i think i’ll be exiled, or condemned? Is it just another one of those restrictions I place upon myself – to say what i think other people want to hear?
Perhaps, perhaps.
Daring to speak my mind is a leap i want to make one day. Day by day now it’s about crawling and walking out of speeches in my head, leading to the path of releasing what needs be said and discarding what need not.
First, I guess, Is the step of courage.
