The desire to be liked, “please” people, and not make waves, is one of the causes of the predicament that we find ourselves in today. Say what you really think....you just might be surprised how many others agree with you, but if they don’t....too bad!

I waver. There are situations in which I am blunt. There are situations in which I am totally a wuss. I know my own weaknesses, so when I am put on the spot involving something that affects me directly, I panic. This is why I will likely never run for any office myself.

I mean yeah, maybe I shouldn't care what others think, but my greatest life's embarrassment is that I may have inadvertently driven two friends away from Christ in my younger and stupider years.

God may forgive, but I doubt I'll ever forgive myself for that.

You sound like you have discernment, which is one of the best qualities to have.
