You know how sometimes when you say something it goes the wrong way and other times you say something it isn't enough? You go back later and labor over what you said or should have said. Kicking and flailing at yourself mentally?
I have an idea, why don't you just try honesty mixed with kindness all the time regardless of who you are talking to or even what you are talking about? That way you can be true to yourself and your values. People will trust that your yes is yes and your no is no! What a concept!
How good is that? Real good!
Sing it Billy Joel!
Honesty!
HERE ARE THE WORDS!
If you search for tenderness
it isn't hard to find.
You can have the love you need to live.
But if you look for truthfulness
You might just as well be blind.
It always seems to be so hard to give.
Honesty is such a lonely word.
Everyone is so untrue.
Honesty is hardly ever heard.
And mostly what I need from you.
I can always find someone
to say they sympathize.
If I wear my heart out on my sleeve.
But I don't want some pretty face
to tell me pretty lies.
All I want is someone to believe.
Honesty is such a lonely word.
Everyone is so untrue.
Honesty is hardly ever heard.
And mostly what I need from you.
I can find a lover.
I can find a friend.
I can have security until the bitter end.
Anyone can comfort me
with promises again.
I know, I know.
When I'm deep inside of me
don't be too concerned.
I won't as for nothin' while I'm gone.
But when I want sincerity
tell me where else can I turn.
Because you're the one I depend upon.
