how much is too much??

hello my friends!!! its a brand new COLD day LOL..ya even i have to face the truth today on that one!! lately i have had the the very good fortune of meeting some new people. which is both exciting and difficult, no matter what the capacity. could be someone i am going to date. could be just someone i hope to have as a new friend. the point is, that things have changed out there and how do you know what you should share about yourself?? can knowing too much be a turn off? should you be an open book or are some things better left unread??

there's an old saying, "what you don't know can't hurt you." but is that really true? or can the things not said today haunt you tomorrow? everyone knows the truth can be painful-but it can also set you free. its a risk you take whenever you open yourself up to someone. i for one think honesty is worth it. and who knows you just might be pleasently surprized. (men in trees)

until next time...safe jouney

Hey there sweet thang!
I believe sharing your values, your beliefs and being who you are is very important. I also have experienced way too much sometimes... It is a fine line between honesty and dumping your energy onto another... I usually ask myself, why do I feel the need to share "this" (whatever this is), will it be of benefit to me and the other person, am I setting myself up for the same behavioral / emotional pattern by continually "beating the drum" of how things have always been, rather than talking about how I wish them to be. The art of manifestation works with vibrations ~ words and thoughts have a specific vibration, those that are positive (uplifting) have a higher vibration, those that are negative (complaining, talking about all the things that have gone wrong in your life, etc.) have a lower vibration.
So, there you have my ramblings...
Honesty, yes ~ discernment ~ absolutely!
