From time to time, I get told I'm very quiet, and my response is a shy smile and a shrug. But on the inside, a conflict arises. The frustration is overwhelming, I scream but not a sound is made. They say actions speak louder then words, but if that is the case, who do they only pay attention to the two words I say, which are "I'm okay.?"
