• Important Lesson

  There was a quote I found appropriate for the current scenario. I also thought it would be a good quote to use in life. Maybe it can give a bit of insight into me, because it was something that stuck out as soon as I saw it.
  
  Those who know do not talk.
  Those who talk do not know.

           -Lao Tzu, Tao Te Ching

  We are who we are. If I think that I have faults or someone confronts me about an issue with me, I don't talk about it. I take action and fix it. I am going to be the best person I possibly can and constructive critism is a part of that process. If I feel like I've wronged people or created any form of hostility between anyone, I won't sit and talk. I need to take action and know that I am responsible. It may be up to me to help the situation, so I will do everything in my power to help it. Maybe it's because I grew up without a lot of friends. It might be due to the location I grew up in. I don't really know. I do know that I want the best for everyone I come into contact with. If there is a way for me to facilitate that, I will. I don't do a lot of talking because I want to be that someone. As the old cliche goes; "Talk is cheap."
  

  I will say, if I don't know what my next action is I will talk my way through it with someone. Particularly those involved. I don't want to leave anyone wondering. I do feel that closure and knowing the "why" of it is owed. So I won't just silently fade anyone out. I feel that you all are too important for that. And perhaps I may help your future friendships and relationships. Don't take that as me inflating my importance or any grandiose delusions there. I just felt that my intentions needed to be stated, as opposed to assumed. You know what they say about assumptions.

  Lastly, C.U.C. is driving me nuts, but I love the stimulation and hope the results pan out. (MindFlurry ftw!)
