Something

"Honesty is such a lonely word" as the song goes.. but i think the more apt word to that is 'sincerity'. Ergo:"Say what you mean and mean what you say." i think, is probably closer to the mark and more applicable to reality. you see we sometimes are careless with what we say - not always with any intention to be careless or unthinking - but we are unaware sometimes of the way others will take what we say or even of the meaning of the words we use.. we get carried away by our feelings at/of the moment... let me qualify that:" we let our feeling run us without thinking first[and this, i'm sure you agree is NOT an oxymoron:"unthinking feelings"].. so when we are caught up in an intense feeling.. love/hate.. joy/sadness/anger.. we say a lot of things without thinking them through first.. and we end up saying later on.."i didn't mean it that way" or worse, we let the Other discover it on their own that we "didn't mean it,exactly that way". you can imagine how much misunderstanding this begets,people get hurt unnecessarily or rest their hopes on your unmeant/insincere words and get hurt down the road. so i urge you to think things as thouroughly as you can before saying anything or professing to commit to anything, no one can fault you if you say " let me think on that first" in a conversation. you don't have to agree or disagree in the precise moment someone asks you your side in a seemingly yes/no position subject.More so, try not to be careless when dreams are involved. your dreams or other people's. Never be cavalier with other people's hearts and minds, the potential of hurting them greatly in the long run is just too great.and this is where the part of the lyrics of the sunscreen song is coming from.."Don't be reckless with other people's hearts. Don't put up with people who are reckless with yours." And we go back to this "blog"'s theme: think. think things through.. and spread the light( the source being within you and given to you by grace) all around..
