The Moment i Said it...

A new year is upon us ( a little late i know ) but nonetheless its here.
At the end of a year people tend to look back on their year, think it over, decide what they thought was good about and what they regretted, hence New years resolutions. Regret especially is the kind of thing that once it happens... theres no turning back. Sometimes people say and do things just because its what they were feeling in the heat of the moment. We've all been there and we've all done it. The point in time when theres a slip of the tongue and instant regret the moment it has been said. Of course the immediate response when this happens is " i didn't really mean that..." but we all know that yes, we did. Somewhere deep down inside us we mean every single word of it. But we say we don't mean it because we know that it hurts someone else.
Maybe its our guilty conscious taking over for a quick recovery, or maybe its the fact that as much as something bothers us we do not have the heart to make someone else feel inadequate, unwanted, or unhappy. But what about the things that tend to bother you so much that you cant shake them. You tell yourself over and over that it doesn't bother you but really nothing has ever bothered you so much in your entire life. Do you take the chance and tell those people how they are really making you feel or do you keep quiet and suffer because... you'd rather see them happy.
I guess it depends on how much they mean to you.
