Text 1

During the past fifteen years a great deal of attention has been given to "letting it all hang out".

My impression is that this over-zealous devotion to speaking one' s mind has more often led to hurt feelings and ruined relationships than to great joy and fulfillment.

I think we generally agree that holding in real feelings and never expressing less-than-lovely thoughts about each other hardly lead to constructive communication. It' s a great relief to allow ourselves the luxury of admitting our human weaknesses and pursuing more honest relationships with oth-ers. But we need to strike a balance between telling it all and telling nothing.

Recently I received a letter from a mother who had been persuaded by her troubled twenty-five-

year-old son to attend a weekend "truth" marathon with him. Under pressure from the group, her de-fenses collapsed and she heard herself telling her son for the first time that he had been an accident-that she hadn't been planning to have a child. He in turn told her that he couldn't recall a single dayin his childhood that he'd been happy.

"At that time," this woman wrote, "it seemed helpful. We cried and we made up; I thought

telling the truth had been good for us. But the trouble is, it wasn't the whole truth. By the time

Tommy was born, I did want him, and at times he was happy. Ever since that day, we' ve both been disturbed by some terrible feelings we shared. "

I must admit we've come to the conclusion that some things are better left unsaid. Honesty is a

fine policy as long as we know what the truth really is-but most of the time we don't. It's a fine

goal to encourage children to express their real feelings. But we need a new sense of balance. Telling it all is not a cure-all for every problem nor even an end in itself. It's useful and freeing under some circumstances and terribly hurtful and damaging under others.

It' s a good idea, I think, to bite your tongue for ten or fifteen minutes before saying what' s on

your mind. Try to decide whether it's going to open up new and better avenues of communication or leave wounds that may never heal.
