"Never apologize for showing feeling. When you do so, you apologize for the truth."
~Benjamin Disraeli
I have been apologetic on a number of occasions in the past, especially during times when I am feeling sensitive or vulnerable. However, I have come to appreciate acknowledging the truth, accepting my feelings for what they are, instead of trying to push them off because it seemed like the easier thing to do. Granted, the truth is not easy when feelings are complicated, and there is seemingly nothing that you can do with what you feel. But I am done with hiding and pretending that they don't exist. It feels dishonest and usually leaves me frustrated instead. So please excuse me if I'm frank. I just can't help what I feel.
