Silent all these years...

Martin Luther King, Jr. once said "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter." and it reminded me of something somebody i once knew said to me. She said "You only make matters worse by being quiet about whats really wrong in this world" and I thought the person was a certified loony for a while but damn if you wouldn't know looking back now I think she was dead on. I hate that. If I could find that "person" I would tell them the words that there ears long to hear. And after I told "her" and she knows who "she" is, I would tell her that she was right. Then I would stick out my tongue like a three year old spit vigorously and run far far away not looking back.

"What have you been silent about all these years."
