Don’t come at me with that Jehovah’s Witness crap of love and peace being the solution and the only way to get into ‘heaven’. When the truth needs to be said it needs to be. If I need to yell, I will. We hide our real emotion because we are scared to ruin the other person’s frail ego. The moments of truth, the little moments we miss are the ones which define who we really are. Disguised as anger, but very effective. Let Me Explain.
I have an uncle, in his forties. Heavy drunkard, the type that does not even choose which alcohol they will drink to keep them drunk. He has a bright mind though. Apparently he is very educated but he chose an idle life over an actual career. Still he survives. Most people in the family don’t listen to what he says when he is drunk. Between the swear words and the slurred sentences, this guy always lays the truth as it is. In an angry and pseudo-violent manner, he will flail his arms and threaten to beat people up if someone refuses to admit to messing up in a way. Still they play down what he says. A drunkard, idiot they claim! No one wants to hear the truth.
I don’t particularly like customer ‘care’ officers! I think they are a bunch of fake people. Some lunatic calls the Econet help line with a stupid question because he is bored and these people on the other side of the call want to be all nice and all. For the why? Tell the truth! Tell that person that they are being a bore. That their need to annoy has achieved it’s goal. Drop that call. Let’s be honest with each other and show how we really feel.
Have you ever been to a family event. Where you meet those long lost relatives that you haven’t seen in years who claim to ‘miss’ you a lot. With all the plastic smiles and aggressive shoulder taps, fake love oozes at every turn. No one attempts to tell the other that they would not like a conversation. That they would love to leave and not be there. Everyone reserves the truth for when they are in bed with their wives. Cowards! Say it to someone’s face, “I don’t like you!”
Freeing stuff that, telling how you really feel. We should all try that sometime. I’m always honest, I think. You know damn well I’m always real with you. I don’t care how you feel about the truth. Let’s just lay it as it is!
