We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be.- Kurt Vonnegut, Jr.
I always said, "make pretend" whilst growing up. My mother always corrected me, "Make believe or pretend...not whatever it is you're saying."
I said it anyway.
The make pretend I'm doing now is eluding me. So much loss. Such a sense of disenfranchisement. Such kow-towing. It actually hurts.
And it's Neil freakin' Simon.
I have to find the win.

Tell the truth. Nobody needs to "hear it," you don't need to "tell someone"... but in the quiet of your personal space, tell the truth. Admit what you really feel. Just admit it.
