Say It!

I tend to err on the side of saying too much sometimes. Then there are those who don't say anything at all and keep it all bottled in. Extremes are never good but I know you and I can find a balance. I've learned to listen, I've learned to keep a tight lid, I've learned how powerful my words are and although a pure intent is there, how you say it matters as well. Let me tell you, I am still learning. My experiences have taught me well and the hard way - use wisdom and don't argue with fools. 

I always feel a huge responsibility to say something, to address the issue, to confront the injustice etc. and I like that I am vocal, I like that I don't have to wait for someone to say something first before I do. I like the freedom of speech and expression that we have and that I exercise it. I thank God that He has given me a passion for being a voice to the voiceless. I hope this encourages you to speak up, to defend, to proclaim the truth, to say something if you see something, to say you don't agree, to say that you forgive them anyway and to be a voice for this generation and the next. No fear, no shame, say it.

Let's remember how short our time here is. Tell that special someone you love them, tell someone you need their help, tell someone you're sorry, tell someone how beautiful they look, tell someone you're overwhelmed, tell someone your biggest dreams, tell someone you want to help them and tell the world you will not be silent.

Say what you need to say! Sing it Johnny...I guess we're cool like that.
