Why do we find it so hard to let people know our true feelings. Is it because we are scared of being rejected? Is it because we are not sure? Is it because we are not sure of theirs? Feelings are the things that make us what we are. They are the things that make life more enjoyable, and sometimes painful. If we never tell anyone what we feel then they never know. Feelings are things to be shared with others..whether it be a friend or a lover. The only way that anyone can truely get to know you is if you are open with them about everything. Sometimes it is not easy to tell someone what you are thinking. But, if you never take that chance then you may be missing out on something very wonderful. I have learned over the last couple of years that it is better to take a chance then not to at all. You may fall on your face a few times and be hurt but the human heart is a wonderful thing and bounces back.
Love is the hardest feeling of all to share with someone. You never know if you are saying it because it is what you feel or what you think they want to hear. If you say it because it is what you think the other person wants to hear, then you are wrong. The 3 hardest words to take back after saying them are "I love you". If you do not mean them with your whole heart then you should not say them.
Every one has friends but do they really care about them. There are a lot of people who say "Yes, they are my friend" but they dont know hardly anything about them. Do you call them a friend, just becaue you know who they are? Do you confide in them? Do you trust them? To me a friend is someone who you talk to, who you would trust with your deepest secrets. Someone who is there for you in good times and bad. Someone who understands when not to push you.Someone who accepts you for what you are. Someone you care about. Someone that you listen to, help and understand. I know a lot of people from meeting them on the net. Most of them I have never met and probably never will. But, they are all my dear friends. You dont have to see someone face to face to call them your friend. You have to know who they are and what they are about. I have also met a few people on here who think it is wise to lie to the other person they are talking to..but yet still cal them a friend. How can you lie to someone and call them a friend? How do you remember what lie you told to what person? I dont think that lieing to someone shows them that they are your friend. Friendship is based on honestly, loyalty, common ideas and opinions and affection for the other person. How can you have that when you lie? Someone I met on the net once told me..this is all fantasy. Well, to some people it is, that is why it is so easy to tell people things that are untrue. I myself like talking to people and do not hide who or what I am. I tell them the truth. Some would say that is not a smart thing to do. Which in some cases is true. I do feel that being honest is the only way to truely have good friends that will always be there. If you value your friends and their feelings they will be beside you always.
