Transparency... yes, no, maybe Like an open book Yes, that's me! Love me or hate me wish everyone would just say what they mean Hard to keep faith, when the truth can't be forseen From now on I'm going to say it like it is, Or not say it at all, "It is what it is?!" Only say if it will help?? Otherwise, it's not good for your health by health I mean sanity There is such a thing as brutal honesty Sometimes the truth hurts but lies can consume you Your heart, your mind, your soul Stay honest to yourself and your heart will be full you will not feel as if things are out of control Sometimes the consequences can't be seen But it's hard when you really want to say something and holding it in doesn't feel right Sometimes it's simply not worth the fight Perception, it's a funny thing some say honest, some say mean I say be true to your heart and the rest will fall into place Sometimes it's the "long game", slow down, it's not a race Kristy Robertson

This one was written the summer of 2018 I believe. I wish more people would be transparent. I think it would make life a whole lot easier!
