Constantly Torn

I openly admit I struggle with this. My life experience has been that people are predominantly not so good. That will, obviously, differ from person to person (and I do have some amazing people in my life, don’t get me wrong), but I double-checked with a handful of people who agree with me. Does anyone else struggle with this where friends and family are concerned?

An Unexpressed Feeling

An unexpressed feeling is like a rubber band being stretched to its limit. The longer you hold on to the feeling, the more the tension grows. Eventually something has to give, or the rubber band is going to snap. When that happens, someone is going to get hurt. What you feel is important and expressing it is an important step toward healing yourself and someone else.
