Honesty

If you happen to know me at all, you'll probably realize that I'm very very very protective of my principles. I more or less grew up on my own for a large part of my life, making my own rules, creating my own set of beliefs.

And honesty is not one of them. I'm more of a do-whatever-it-takes-to-get-what-i-want kinda person, which I admit is not something to be proud of.

Nevertheless I'm protective and proud of the few other principles I still uphold. And not impinging on personal rights is definitely one of them.

Today a friend of mine just over stepped his boundary. I yelled. And now it's fine, everything is water under the bridge.

You see, I protected my principles, at the expense of a friendship.
