Wouldn't it be great if we could speak our minds, exactly what we think when we think them? To have the courage to just blurt it out with exactly as little care as we take when we have those thoughts?
Surely it would hurt.
But wouldn't it make all these people that are so easily offended learn to toughen up eventually? We’d all learn to be more tolerant, if not totally understanding. And, really, isn’t courage to handle the truth, to dole it out and accept it, too...the better thing anyway?
We judge because we’re judged, we attack because we’re attacked. And we become less and less human and more and more cruel. Bridges get burned. Hearts get broken. Hurt people hurt people constantly and effectively.
I think we should all just stop doing that.
