The Truth

"Sometimes truth hurts, and sometimes it feels real good"- Henry Rollins

Sometimes the truth hurts and we push away people that tell us how it is, but we shouldn't keep the liars in our life, the ones that tell us what we want to hear or the ones that don't challenge us to better ourselves. But sometimes the truth makes us feel like we can do anything, like hearing that a family member is going to have a baby. It's not just hearing the truth that's hard, sometimes telling truth can be hard, what if you had to tell someone their close relative had died? what if you saw your best friend's girlfriend or boyfriend cheating on them, how would you tell you best friend?

So instead of denying the truth, or telling lies, we should take people's feelings into consideration when we tell them the truth or when we are about to lie to someone think about how they will feel when they hear the truth

Change

"I'll never change but I'll never stay the same either" - Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift as per usual is right.  You know people do change and there is no denying that, but when we say people change, others thing we mean you go to bed with blonde hair and blue eyes then wake up with brown hair and green eyes, change takes time and you might not notice it overnight but maybe in a  few months or years you will look back and say "wow, is that really me?" People make out change to be this horrible thing to be scared of but what if you were depressed and changing meant being happy? what if you had just broken up with someone you thought you'd spend the rest of your life with and changing meant moving on? even the bad case scenario changes are nothing to be scared of, like when you have finished school and you don't think you're ready for the real world but who knows what lies in the world for you unless you let change happen.

So instead of trying to force change or hiding from change I think we should embrace change as it it happens and live in the now.
