My words said, “Let’s take a walk,” but my mind was screaming, “Take a hike!”
I don’t know about you, but despite the social pressure to always say the “right” thing, I often find myself wanting to speak directly from the heart. For various reasons, we often play devil’s advocate, trying to salvage situations and keep the peace.
However, I’ve learned that some days simply cannot be saved, and sometimes the devil will always be the devil. The real tragedy occurs when you suppress your true thoughts to maintain harmony, only for the other party to “take a hike” anyway, leaving you without the catharsis of having spoken your truth.
How do you navigate the balance between staying professional and courteous and staying authentic to your own voice? I’d love to hear your thoughts.
#MOI Anyways, I will keep on doing what is in my mind, the right thing!
I am the author; I don’t speak; I write.
I write to inspire, to heal, and to share the experiences that shaped me.
I am the author reminding you…
It’s life, not a book;
It’s a woman, not a character;
It’s a reality & not a story!
I am the author; I don’t speak; I write.
I write to inspire, to heal, and to share the experiences that shaped me.
All my books, the ones I lived, learned from, and rose through, are gathered on my author page, waiting for you to explore, reflect, and grow with me.
I invite you to a live BOOK READING DUET. Find the video here
