I'm Not Afraid

When I started this, I thought one of the things I'd was on here was vent.
I thought I'd still be afraid of saying what I really truely thought.
But I'm not.


Today I told my friend to ask me if they wanted to hear the brutally honest truth about what I think. And several did... On Facebook you can do those things where you like someone's status and they tell you their honest opinion of you. It's usually just something nice, not that there's anything wrong with that but why are we all so gutless? I mean me too! Why are we scared to be honest with people, not to be mean but to be honest? When did we, as a society, as a generation, lose that attribute?


Everyone says not to trust because all friends do is backstab. Well I've got a really close group of friends who have been through a lot and we've all managed. But we've also all been honest with each other. No matter how badly it hurt. How? Because we love each other and want to see each other be the best us's we can be. So we bruise out self esteems a little but then help each other boost it to an even higher level.


So, tonight I'm blogging with a really good feeling. I was honest tonight with my friends. I was really honest. And it was really hard. And really scary. But I did it all with good intentions. And I decided I'd rather be hated for caring, than regretted for letting my friends slip so far away that they're screwed.


So honesty. Might as well give it a try.
