"I feel the general concensus, and I agree, is tell the truth. I've got some blockage in blue ray anyway..."
My idea, rather than always tell the truth, is to always go with how I feel. If I feel I am in an arena where it's safe to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, then I go with it. That's seldom the case, as many people would not be able to comprehend my thinking on many subjects.
I sing in the choir at a Protestant church, but so far I haven't had many discussions of theology with other members.
I would not have had a good outcome with saying the things I could say in a CODA meeting, if I had tried to say them in a different type of group. I know that because I had tried it previously and the outcome was humiliating for me.
Fortunately my husband is a person who is almost totally accepting. And that is not an accident, because I had evolved enough before I met him that I probably would not have married the other kind. Thank you, God!
