My father was a writer. He wrote all of his life, inflicting upon many of us his novels, plays, articles, essays, and self-help books. Some were marvelous; some merely well-intentioned. But of all the things he wrote, his journal is his legacy: by turns wise and bewildering, it neared 1,100 type-written pages when he died in 2010. Although perused many times, this is the first time it will be read - cover to cover, page after page.

Speak From Within Yourself
If you can respond from within yourself, there is no need for anxiety about how someone else might hear or see you. How they might perceive what you say, or how they will understand who you are, is within them and so cannot reasonably be your concern.
