Sometimes...

Sometimes we can't say what we want to say.

We are shy.

We are worried that we will be thwarted.

We are afraid of other people's reactions.

But our truth is our truth and the sooner we say something, the sooner we know where we stand.
Whether or not you say it to everyone and anyone. Know that it is within you. Know what you feel and don't string people along.  Friends. Book Clubs. Religious Organizations.  Tell them.  You are done or not done, depending on where you stand.   Otherwise you find yourself in the land of purgatory, the in-between place, neither here nor there.

And sometimes that place is the only place you can be until you sort it out for yourself.

Until you find your way, your faith.  Your truth.

"The truth will set you free."  Once we recognize ourselves in the mirror and know how we want to walk in the world, find our faith, our core strengthens.  And we are free of the ties that bind us to whomever we might have thought we were.

Even though, as we all know, the truth looks so very different from whichever angle you are viewing it from.  Sometimes it is unclear and that is also okay.  Sometimes the truth is in the waiting.
