All my life, I've had some trouble with authorities (teachers), I've had trouble with my friends, my family, etc. And through many years, I thought: "Hmm, I guess I'm being rude or something...". And so I start to try and control those urges to tell people what I think when there came a time that my boyfriend at a time cringed and said: "...you're so honest". And I thought "Is that a bad thing?". So after this remark, I start to notice more and more how true it was. People only seemed to respond negatively when I actually said what I thought.
After noticing this little aspect of me, I thought about how the world is used to only listen to what they want to hear, even if it's a lie. That's pretty shocking, considering that lies are good for nothing and only complicate everything. I don't understand why people like to be lied to.
With this, I start my blog "Honestly", where you can be sure I'll be saying exactly what I feel or see, no filters. I hope you enjoy the blog and I hope you enjoy honesty.
Honestly,
Andrea.
