Yes, I admit it, I am often very blunt in how I explain what I see and what I think, and that is just all I am. With a speech impairment and someone who get tired easily, I sometimes do not have time to waste on niceness and when something needs to be said, I just say it! I may offend people but I am never rude and too personal, not in comparison to how others can respond to me.
While my bluntness can be seen as a weakness, it can also be seen as a strength as I feel honestly above many qualities because too few people are to me about what they think of me, as well as what they think about themselves and others. If I can use my bluntness to help others be challenged to think differently, then I think that is better for everyone.
Bluntness is a quality I value and I will not be trying to change that.
