When You’re Forked

I have been guilty of gutlessness.

It is gutless to shut up and not say what you really think or feel.

No matter how will intentioned the reasoning – to protect people, to keep the peace, whatever – keeping your thoughts and feelings away from those close to you is just a case of kicking the can down the road.

Eventually you get to a fork in the road and by then the can will have grown too big to kick.
