Holding Back
5 March, 2005

Why do we hold back our feelings.
To not say what we feel is a shame.
We don't want the pain of rejection.
But not sharing the truth is pain.
Without taking a chance, we will never know the gains.

Great

Hi Barb -- I seem to have missed this one. What great sentiments you express here. Your words are so true. I think we should all take the courage to say how we feel instead of wondering and feeling bad. At least air our feelings and see if others feel the same. Good work.
