Why complicate life?
Missing somebody? - Call
Wanna meet up? - Invite
Wanna be understood? - Explain
Have questions? - Ask
Don't like something? - Say it
Like something? - State it
Want something? - Ask for it
Love someone? - Tell them
I'm still not very good at stating what I want or need - I don't like feeling like I'm putting others out. The problem with this noble stance is that eventually, being human you snap and this can result in having the opposite effect than you were trying to achieve. It is harder than you think to be truly honest with yourself and then with others. I read a really interesting article recently on Gwyneth Paltrow newsletter goop about 'The Truth' - if you're interested follow this link http://www.goop.com/journal/be/236/the-truth
I think in essences like so many things in this modern age we over complicate life and the way we think. So this kind of quote struck me as being a simple mantra to try and counter act that feeling.
