I'd rather be me.

I speak my mind. Openly. Often telling my friends and acquaintances what they don’t want to hear. My perception of the truth. Even if it’s brutal.  That may make me seem mean. But actually. It’s an act of kindness. To speak the truth.  Yes, I know. Some people would prefer. That I be a liar. Anyway, I’d rather be me. --Jim Broede
