Box Thoughts
August 25, 2014

Sometimes you have to take that thought and shove it down.

Sometimes there are things that must be said.  That desperately need to come out to make the world a better place.  The things that live in the dark that no one wants to bring back up because nothing good has ever come from them.  Things that if brought back up would haunt.

No matter how badly these may need to be brought back to life, sometimes it’s better to shove them down and keep them down.

Write the email.  Rewrite it.  Try to make it viable.  Then just simply delete it.

Dial the phone.  Hang up before it starts to ring.  Try again.  Then just simply turn your phone on silent and walk away.

Do you want to do the right things or do things the right way?  They may not be the same or even compatible.
