Speaking The Ugly Truth Is Not Keeping It Real

Sometimes the truth hurts. Sometimes, you really need to hear a hurtful truth. But often, your desire to deliver a hurtful truth is misguided. Like 99% of the time.

A few years ago, it was a big deal to keep it real. People believed they had the right to say whatever came to mind to whoever was around. They did not have this right, but they believe in their ability to keep it real over their need as a decent human being to keep it polite.

Backhanded comments given as unwarranted feedback are rude. They just are. If you feel you have to tell someone something hurtful, first be sure you are a person that should be delivering the message, then be tactful. Then, accept the path that the person chooses after the words have been spoken.
