Talking is important.
Correcto - Expressing yourself is important.
You don't necessary need to talk to express yourself, as long as you get the feeling that someone else knows what you wanted to express, that's all it matters.
I think a lot of people may encounter situations where they feel unhappy not because they can't overcome things in their lives, but they just don't have anyone who would listen to them.
I came across some reading materials some time ago saying that most of the time, we don't want people don't want advises nor Captain Obvious telling them the problem, solution or what they would do; people just want to express themselves and that's all.
I think this is very true. Most of the time when you encounter problems or situations where you're unhappy, you do know what needs to be done, though it may not be pleasant. But to be willing to do it, sometimes you just need to say it out to someone who wouldn't tell you what he thinks but more of listening to you weighing your options.
And if you're to make a bad call, then so be it. You shall learn from your mistake. Even if you do die from the bad call, you die honorably doing something on your own.
Okay, fuck the dying part. What I meant is people need to express themselves constantly to maintain sanity. We're social creatures after all. Imagine living 1 month without talking to anyone at all (no instant messaging, whatsapp, sms and emails which are not work related). I doubt anyone could pull that off and still be happy.
I find myself unhappy at times when I don't have time to blog. Reason?
I think I'm not expressing myself fully.
I find myself unhappy at times when I couldn't blog on certain things due to office policies and society's expectations. Reason?
I do not like living a life of lies.
I find myself unhappy at times when I couldn't blog on my sex life or my flings due to society's expectations and fear of hurting my boyfriend's feelings.
Fuck all this.
From now on - No holds barred.
I blog what I want.
Cheers
