Reminds me of the quote “If you tell the truth, you don’t have to remember anything”

Life hack. Be upfront in all your relationships, so you can devote all your mental and emotional energies to just being yourself. No web of lies. No managing personas. Just being yourself every moment of your life.

This is either about authenticity or moving out to the middle of the woods after cutting all ties because “Paul doesn’t get my edgy sense of humor.”

Being yourself doesn’t mean disregarding the knowledge of others. You can still try to grow and learn and try and be a better person.
So the former I guess lol

Knowledge and feelings of others. Sometimes coming out with everything all at once is a bit overwhelming for others, as their everything would be for us; and sometimes saying everything in our natural way triggers hurt feelings in others (often due to subtle misunderstandings and expectations), as their way might to us.
I agree with the general principle of being open and honest, and then not having to hide yourself.
Also: my keyboard keeps correcting words to ‘kissing’ today. Is Google trying to tell me something?

It sounds like we’re on the same page.
And you should switch away from a Google keyboard if you can! I’ve been using the AnySoftKeyboard (plus swipe plugin) for about a year, and after an initial adjustment period, I’m glad it’s one more area where I don’t have to touch Google.
