Speaking The Truth


Here’s something to Feel Good About Today…

May 9rd.

My friend called to thank me for a conversation we had the day before. I listened and told her that everything I said to her was the truth. She just needed some time to search her heart and know that it was right for her to take an action by speaking up.

It’s especially difficult when someone is doing you a favor and what they deliver is not what you had hoped for. Her choice was to let it go and not express her true feelings, or to address it in a benign way. I suggested that letting them know where she was coming from and what she expected of them, gave them the opportunity to see if they could deliver. All she could do was ask, and that action would give her an inner peace no matter how they responded.

She called to say it had worked out fabulously! They were gracious and open to her comments.

 We never know how someone will respond to what we ask of them. I’ve found that the most important part is asking, speaking the truth when asked, and letting go of the results.
