Many times I hold back from writing because sometimes I am inspired by what may seem to be a joke or something similar. I often delete - hard to believe I know - because my tone may be taking away from others but I do feel that while many a true word may be spoken in jests many jests may be spoken in true words.
I do not wish to offend but sometimes - like Lear's Fool- is truth often spoken in apparent foolishness. Most of the Friends I know are not dour but that is how we may come across to the world. Should we not lighten our words in the trust that they may lighten the burdens of others?
In confusion
