Why is everything about pride? Why do people lie? What is so hard about telling the truth even if it hurts? Truth sets you free…it heals the soul …words can be weapons or they can heal a heart…β€
I have no problem saying, I am sorry, or forgive me, or I LOVE YOU! Honesty is beautiful π Honesty sets you free! Honesty opens the door for sooooo much! Apologize where needed and say forgive me where needed and say, I LOVE YOU NO MATTER WHAT β€ if you love someone say it! Say it loud and clear …MAKE SURE THEY HEAR AND KNOW!!
And baby can I hold you? Good song? πβ€
Unfortunately we find ourselves on different levels of maturity and different sections of our life path. Like you I wear my heart on my sleeves. I say whatβs inside my heart. There is no pride or pretending to be perfect. I know Iβm not and Iβm willing to learn and say so if Iβm wrong. Iβm human. Itβs not an excuse for any actions, but indeed factual.
It makes me vulnerable and itβs something that scares most. But for me itβs also being true to my most authentic self and itβs the only way.

I recall the words to a song I liked, it is an old, old song but it narrated the story about a girl who falls in love with a sailor, who in truth has a girl in every port (as they all do?) and who tells her that he will never settle down with her or with anybody but she still hopes, and “…he had always told the truth, Lord, he was an honest man”. So honesty is not always the solution or the problem, or both…anyways…sei un tesoro bella, baci, ciao, ci parliamo subito!

I like this however at least in truth she could make a clear conscious decision based on truth not falsenss…I value the truth then if I know the truth and I accept it I am accountable however if I am mislead and believe its the truth when I find out it is in fact dishonest and a lie and was fed lies then I have to hurt worse then if I knew the truth all along…but would love to hear the song!! In fact I love the storyline and am interested π sei fantastico ti adoro tanti baci ππ

It would be the greatest crime if someone treated you, bella, like that. You are a pure and honest soul and you deserve the same. God bless. The song is called “Brandy” and it was a hit way back in the 70’s (I think)…
Love and peace to you, bella, dalla Spagna! Un baci, non, mille!

Thanks so much!!! I recently told someone I am sorry that needed to hear it! I made a mistake one that I own and I said clearly to them that I was sorry and that I loved them! I meant every word of it! Your right honesty sets you free and as we get older we realize more its not about what people think of us its more about what we think of ourselves…honestly I’d rather look vulnerable and honest then a liar …I walked away from 8.5 years from someone who showed the world he was one way hiding who he was around me..they may never believe me but thats okay…he knows and God knows I can live with that. .I had to break my own heart to find peace …β€

You’re welcome! And I agree with you. You have to live with yourself most of all; you cannot run away from yourself really. It’s important to be honest with yourself, even though it hurts. I like how you said this: “I had to break my own heart to find peace”. I think it’s often true that this is the case. But it’s worth it to find a better place. Stay safe! Have a good rest of your week!

I did have to break my own heart actually more then once unfortunately..its never easy to end a marriage or relationship when your actually very much in love with the person but if it keeps affecting your peace and sanity and its mentally destructive you have to love yourself more thus breaking your own heart and loving your safe more β€ I hope to find a refuge a warm cozy place in his arms with the one I wont have to break my heart again to be with happily…you stay safe and have a beautiful rest of your week as well π

Well that was honest π I understand what your saying and feeling safe is important! Feeling very safe makes all the difference! For me I don’t rest unless I tell someone exactly how I feel I must really say it and no matter what the conclusion i was honest and spike clearly and loudly…my feelings for someone are always genuine and if I make a mistake I own it and I fix it …I despise liars the most!
