A Creative Outlet For Life’s Frustrations #1 Be Real

Alright here goes my attempt into the world of blogging. I really don’t know if anyone will ever care to read what I have to say but if that ends up being the case I guess this will be nothing more then a outlet for me to rant about what’s ever on my mind and give some of my friends a break from my unstoppable mouth and wide variety of opinions. I’m calling this blog Spit It Out for the simple fact that I say what’s on my mind and wish others would follow my lead. Too many people spend too much time and energy avoiding the truth or trying to beat around the bush when in all reality they should just “spit it out.”
That being said it is only appropriate for my first topic of discussion to be the issue that many people have with just saying what they think and meaning what they say. This issue has always boggled my mind. True, part of this might be the fact that I myself do not suffer from this problem. I tend to say what I think whether or not any one really wants to hear it. But why is it that so many people feel the need to avoid what’s really on their mind? Is it a fear of the people around them rejecting what they have to say? Is it just insecurity? Or is it at times just easier to play games and only show other what you think that they want to see? I feel that there are many people that hold back because of the first two reasons named and I hope these people some day are able to break away and be themselves. I however have a particular interest in the third. The thought of putting on a show for those to see only what you want them to or what you think they want to see is a joke to me. I can think of so many situations when this comes into play. Maybe you are trying to suck up to a boss or maybe it’s to impress someone of the opposite sex, whatever the case may be this is usually a bad idea all together. Eventually your true colors will show and this fake persona will end up kicking you when you’re down. No one can keep up the act forever and when it all comes out you will be the one left looking like a d bag. So if anyone is reading this and knows someone who suffers from being a number three, please feel free to call them out because someone really needs to before they let down the people around them and end up the butt of every joke.
So I guess the moral of this story is just being real. Be you. You might be surprised that the outcome of being real and putting all your cards on the table is better then the superficial shell that you hide behind.
