While I'm living out loud in so many cases, I still find a small squeaky voice in certain matters (such as relationship with mother).<BR/><BR/>I can say I have a strong voice in relationship with fiance and in my friendships. Being myself and being totally honest about where I stand is so refreshing - and so much less work than always "monitoring" to superficially avoid conflict.<BR/><BR/>Great post, Blu!<BR/><BR/>{{hugs}}<BR/><BR/>====@====<BR/>Hawa, author of <A HREF="http://www.fackintruth.typepad.com" REL="nofollow">Fackin Truth Blog</A> and <A HREF="http://www.CleanseMasterRemix.blogspot.com" REL="nofollow">Cleanse Master Remix</A>Hawa Bondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17191367234186509296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20538189.post-91025711900262257982009-04-03T11:07:00.000-04:002009-04-03T11:07:00.000-04:00@BluI believe that you have so much to share with ...@Blu<BR/>I believe that you have so much to share with others.
