Sorting Out Your Tribe

Writing is a way to express my feelings
It is considered a healthy way to vent
Until or unless it makes someone uncomfortable
Then you are crazy, or a troll, or a werewolf’s tongue or something

When you are too honest, things can go awry, 
haywire, you can land head down, feet first.
Do it anyway
Spill your truth.
Throw it out there onto the page.
Lay it out.

It can help you find your tribe
and also show you who the name-callers are
so you can avoid them

Today, people are discovering it is best to keep one's opinions to one's self rather than post them on the internet where people with more time than brains can distort them. Cyber bullying is not appeased by honesty nor integrity, so one must reconsider, "The truth shall make you free!" Aloha! Rico
