Say it

Daily writing prompt
What is one word that describes you?

Wow, so many “kind” people on WP this morning. Good for you guys, I would not describe myself in one word as kind. That’s not even top five.

I’ve only given this three minutes of thought and by the end of the day I could probably come up with something better but at this moment I’m going to go with blunt.

Blunt as in, tell it like it is, no beating around the bush. But not in a rude way. I’m not that much of a Karen. I wouldn’t say anything that would hurt someone’s feelings, for the most part anyway.

I admire directness in a person and can’t stand having to decipher what someone is trying to say. Like can you just get to the point? Even if it’s ugly.

This bluntness is a trait in my family on my Dad’s side. I’m well aware. Clint and I sometimes butt heads about it, (more like I butt heads with him) because I get annoyed that he can’t be more direct and I don’t like having to put a puzzle together just to understand what he’s saying.

When a conversation involves someone talking around something, around and around and around, it’s pointless and a waste of time. Just say it!

  2. Nothing wrong with being someone who just wants life to be straight forward, I think we all want that!

    Being the main character in a Jane Austen novel would drive most people crazy, all but the histrionicals (my new word) manipulating the people around would love it!
