When a person has a hard time expressing him or herself, that person is in for a very hard time in the future. Usually these are the people who are meek and simply settle for what life throws at them. Still, a lot of these guys have some pent-up anger inside of them due to the frustration that they were not able to get the life they want and as a result they have become really jaded and often shut down when things get too much. When that happens, don't be surprise to find them surly and reclusive. The thought of shutting down due to too much negative crap happening around you reminds me of the song "Fortress Around Your Heart" by Sting.
They say that pleasing too many people often leads to the ruin of your own happiness. That is especially true when you're force to do things you don't want all the time. Pretty soon it gets too much that you don't want to be around be people since all they do is cause you pain and you just want to get lost and be by yourself. What's insulting is that people don't understand why you suddenly shut down and left after all that badgering. They just don't get the fact that they're sucking the life right out of you and if that wasn't enough, your happiness along with it.
Sometimes, we need some time to heal ourselves from all that abuse. People should arealize when they go too far with a person before that person goes off the deep end. All we want is to be given a chance to do what we want and be what we want to be without the sting of redicule or the fear of being forced into something we don't want to do or be. I really people could be more encouraging and less demanding of others. If that were the case, we need not have fortresses or wall in our hearts.
