wise words:

The truth is painful.  Deep down, nobody wants to hear it, especially when it hits so close to home.  Sometimes we tell the truth because the truth is all we have to give.  Sometimes we tell the truth because we need to say it outloud to hear it ourselves.  And sometimes we tell the truth because we just can’t help ourselves.  Sometimes we tell them because we owe them at least that much.
