Summary
There is something you need to say and you have been not saying it. It has been living in your throat. It has been sitting in your chest. It has been changing the way you breathe. You have been working around it instead of through it. And it is making you smaller. It is making you hold yourself differently. It is making you twist your body into shapes that accommodate the thing you are not saying. And the accommodating is taking more energy than the saying would. The avoidance is costing you more than the risk of speaking would. You have been making yourself smaller to make room for the thing you will not say. And that is a trade that does not make sense when you really look at it. You are losing more than you would lose by just saying the thing. You are losing space.
