STRAIGHT UP AND SOLID........Straight up, no sugar coating, no pulled punches. Solid, as a rock, someone to depend on, unwavering in commitment and integrity. I live my life one moment to the next, with as much sincerity as I can manage. Honesty and harsh reality. Fearing reactions to reality is stupid, if you can't handle honesty, you can't handle life. Be straight up with everyone you know, constantly, and they will value your opinion, even if it's something they didn't want to hear. Some people appreciate the fact that you will deliver the reality check. Appreciate honesty and sincerity, everything else is fake! A true friend is one who asks you the questions that are hard to ask anyone, and knows you will deliver an honest, heartfelt answer because they know and trust you. Deceit and Betrayal are things my friends never worry about, and never will. They have been known to regret asking me a question or two, but they got what they asked for. Without honor we are nothing, without trust we are alone.
