Confidence

There are times we have to keep things in confidence. There are thoughts we have to keep to ourselves. We really can’t be that frank and open with each other. No one wants to hear that they laugh like a witch and people think they are dull.

Even with close friends there are things you can’t tell each other, like your teeth are really yellow and maybe you should get them bleached. Sometimes we have to tell each other things, like your zipper is down or you have a piece of salad in-between your teeth.

Still other things can never be said. Such as, the girl you’re dating is stupid, ugly and a real witch. Nor can we say that our employer is a jerk and totally unreasonable. We can’t tell women, it’s not the outfit; it’s themselves that are fat.

When we find out things about each other we need to keep it to ourselves as well. Gossip destroys others good name. Is it really worth it to make yourself look a bit better by letting go of something you know about someone? Is it even true? Even it is do you have the right to ruin someone else? They don’t have the right to do that to you or viscera.

The fact of the matter is, it doesn’t do any of us any good to find out someone else did something wrong. It does not enrich our lives or makes our day any better. If you find out something bad does it make you a better person? Not at all, of course there are certain magazines and news programs that would die out if the learned this lesson.


Really, if we take care of our own families and our own business, isn’t that enough? If nothing else I can clean the house and feel like I did one good thing for the day. I make mistakes and I am not always good. If I can at least do one good thing, then I can sleep at night. It can help me have to confidence to face the next day.
