Speak Now.

I recently watched a special on NBC on Taylor Swift and her new album. She is one of my favorite artists and she said something that has really made me think:
"Real life is a funny thing you know, in real life saying the right thing at the right moment is beyond crucial. So crucial in fact that most of us start to hesitate for the fear of saying the wrong thing at the wrong time. But lately what I've begun to fear more than that is letting the moment pass without saying anything. I think you deserve to look back on your life without this chorus of resonding voices saying, "I could have, but its too late." So theres a time for silence, and theres a time for waiting your turn...But if you know how you feel and you clearly know what you need to say, you'll know it, I don't think you should wait. I think you should speak now."
Lately, I've had problems with saying how I feel. I'm not the type of person to always express whats going on in my mind or my heart. I've always been the type to hold it all in so the only person to judge me is myself and God. But this quote has reminded me that I cannot let time and moments pass me by without acknowledging them or saying how I feel. It's my goal these next couple weeks, not to stay quite, but instead step out of my box and Speak Now.
