“Your sweet-toting and sugarcoating is of no service to anyone! Do not sugarcoat reality; it only gives the people in your life a sweet-tooth that then makes it more challenging for them to later bite down on the hardness of life.

Authentic expression of who you really are, how you really feel, without projecting the labels of right or wrong.”
