Withholding
Woke up from a dream with a burning desire to write a letter or communicate something that I felt someone needed to hear or know. It's a bit of truth that they were unaware of or had been lied to because someone told them what they wanted to hear, not what was necessarily the truth.
But then I pause. Yeah, communicating what I want to would make me feel better. But then I pause again. Saying what I want to say could potentially cause a lot of chaos and hurt feelings. It would be potentially causing me to feel better at the expense of someone else's peace of mind.
It sucks to be the one who does the right thing when the other(s) involved wouldn't.
Pain and suffering comes from people being unhappy with how the present moment is-by not accepting, for better or for worse, how things are.
I really don't like this feeling of being the one who carries all this weight while the other parties continue without such a conscience, as they feel justified in their behavior. *sighs*
