Opinions

Here's the thing: I vacillate wildly in my opinions, especially about people. I'm in a constant struggle to keep my spirits up which leads to, I think, a heavy disparity between what I say and what I actually feel. Denial - I wonder if it gets you anywhere? Like maybe you need to deny for a little while until you get to a place where you can process your feelings more accurately/safely.
I read that you have to let go of who you were in order to become who you want to be. (or are?)
