"The most important things are the hardest to say. They are the things you get ashamed of, because words diminish them--words shrink things that seemed limitless when they were in your head to no more than living size when they're brought out. But it's more than that, isn't it? The most important things lie too close to wherever your secret heart is buried, like landmarks to a treasure your enemies would love to steal away. And you may make revelations that cost you dearly only to have people look at you in a funny way, not understanding what you've said at all, or why you thought it was so important that you almost cried when you were saying it. That is the worst, I think. When the secret stays locked within not for want of a teller but for want of an understanding ear." -- Stephen King

I tried, but I guess I am still in the wrong place, because the words I put upon people's ears seem mainly to offend when they are meant to amuse others and take me away from me... I am Charlie X indeed! Sucks!
Thanks for this!

This sounds important. Could you explain further?

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
