Inspiration me...Master Key 47:2 - Say what must be said and say it sincerely without fear or malice. ~The Inner Power Wisdom Cards; Dr. Antonia M.
The above is sound advise, however people don't want to hear the truth. They fear it or see it as malice. They want you to agree with them, sit and ponder with them but in no way say the truth; if it's different to their truth. Than you would be accused of not allowing them to 'vent' or 'being bitchy' or your being 'cold' or 'enter anything that is the opposite of just being sincere'.
But say what must be said anyway. Because you must be able to be yourself. Just say it with the kindness; sincerity and love it should be said with. Be yourself; not the self someone else wants you to be. We lack more and more the ability to allow others to be who they are. We want people to be like us. It's the difference that makes us special. I remember telling a religious person once, who constantly complained about the things that annoyed him of other people (mostly things that they did and he thought his way was better and the 'only' way) - 'you know, you must be the Lord's greatest reason when shaking his head, after all, he made us different for a reason; yet you; the self proclaimed 'saved' one, reject 'his' creations'.
Here's another few lines from a movie with Morgan Freeman (Robin Hood) that stresses the same point -
Azeem: Salaam, little one.
Small Girl: Did God paint you?
Azeem: Did God paint me? [laughs]
Azeem: For certain.
Small Girl: Why?
Azeem: Because Allah loves wondrous varieties.
Don't just dare to be different! Dare to accept those that are different. Don't just say what you think should be said. Say what must be said; say it with heart and kindness, say it to harm none.
