Euphemisms only take you so far. Sometimes it is best to say it as you see it. Though the outcome may not be pretty, but at least it may be honest.
Kind of an ouch moment, reading this. I’ve been told often that my tone in my writing is often too apologetic and conciliatory. Hm. Why do you always have to make me think?! 🙂
Oh, such a tightrope we walk! Not wanting to offend deliberately, but knowing anything, anytime, can be offensive to anyone. Makes it seem useless to try, but Oh, how important to try!
Home's Cool!
