Thinking before speaking is wise in being sure that your message is being sent as intended, authentically and considerate of the receiver's feelings and assumptions. [Example: I am an emotional person, and post based from my gut and heart. Though my intentions are good, my delivery sometimes suffers so that the receiver cannot read the meaning through the haze of being stunned by blatancy.]
Screening or withholding thoughts and emotions so that you will be loved and accepted is not genuine. It is not reflective of what is inside.
