First truth.....

After deciding to start a blog, and already having ideas to write about, I was hit with a HUGE, new TITIK(thing I thought I knew) to write about.
1. Being nice is NOT always the answer.
You know, as a kid, my mom always told me to be nice. I guess I had a tendency to be mean, especially when it involved my siblings. Maybe later on I will blog about that, but for now, I will try and stay focused!
I was on the phone with my mom, just calling to touch base, see how she was doing. The conversation led to a heavy discussion that I found myself wondering if I was prepared for. Normally I would keep my mouth shut, afraid to sound ignorant, or simply just wanting to be nice. I felt compelled to be blunt....really blunt. If I can't be honest with those I care about most, then in my mind, that makes me a liar. I cannot allow myself to lie anymore, not for me or for anyone.
I was in the middle of this serious contemplation, when, out no where, my wonderful, goofy, little sister comes skipping, literally skipping, through my door. She has the biggest grin on her face, hugs my neck and states she is in a goofy mood, and that she loves me! Thank God for goofiness. Goofiness leads to the next TITIK:
2. Being goofy, childish, laughing loud, etc. is NOT STUPID!!!!IT'S THERAPEUTIC!!
