People

Do you ever wish that you could figure certain people out? I mean really, why don't people just say what they really mean? I'm guilty of this too, I have said one thing when I really meant something else but I try not to play with peoples emotions when I do it and I usually fess up as to what I really mean. But what is that, that even honest, non-game playing people have a hard time saying what they truly mean or want? What is wrong with the human race that we can't just say how we feel, what we think, and what we want? Is it out of fear that we will be judged or disliked?
An incredibly wise man (my father) always told me you won't get what you want out of life if you don't ask for it...Of coarse he was talking about asking God for guidance but it holds true to everyday relationships too!!!
