A time and place for everything

So stop me now, if you don't want to hear this.

Honesty is a good thing. Transparency is a good thing. And perfectly timing one or the other, or both of these, is a beautiful thing.

I'm a blurter. I've so strived after being completely honest and transparent that I often say things that shouldn't be said -at least not at that time. There is a time for sharing, but just now? Mmm. Not a good time.

Yeah, well, see... In about two weeks, I'll either be living in a ditch or on to new heights... at the moment the ditch is looking mainstem.

And what are they, the poor people I've just bestowed with this lovely information supposed to do?

Next time you see that behold-I'm-now-going-to-be-transparent-and-honest look come over my eyes? Shut me down. And if you're afraid? Just turn and walk away.

After all, Jesus is my tell-all, not you.

Are all ditches bad? This could be a good one.
