IT IS BECAUSE I CARE

By Yolanda Mabanga

There is a saying that states that sometimes you have to just be cruel to be kind.  I fully understand what it means although some of my friends dont.  There have been a number of times, even from my own parents, i witnessed that being harsh was the only means to portray their kindness and get across.  I have friends who have also told me things that are not pleasing to the ear but they need to be heard because they care.

Wow, I cannot even begin to share where this has come into play in my life.  Most of the time it would be because I am crazy about a guy only to be told that that guy is not good for me.  Ofcourse it is not something you would want to hear when everything is still going great but when it does eventually turn out to be a mistake that is when the horrible advice comes back into play.

I have definitely share harsh words of my own but it really is because i care.  Only close family and friends know when it sincerely comes from the heart. I know that life isn't full of roses and waking up to sunshine everyday which is why relationships arent going to be a bed of roses either.  It is only natural to withstand the rain just as much as you appreciate the sunshine.
