The Cost of Keeping the Peace

Why is it that I have to preface everything I say?  It's like I am forever trying to keep the peace . . to pretend that nothing is wrong, that my feelings aren't hurt, that I will forget about it tomorrow.

The truth of the matter is ~ I have kept most of those pieces of irritation with me forever.  Turning me into someone I really don't want to be.

But it's so hard to change.  It's like the person I've become is the person I most did not want to be. Someone who held secret grudges.  Someone who smiles on the outside and wishes on the inside that life had been different.
