Let the Pith Begin!

Pith - the essence of something. The heart of the matter. The "stuff" of stuff. Why skirt around a matter for the sake of being nice or politically correct, when you can "cut to the chase" and say what you are thinking? Notwithstanding, one can always ''add a little sugar'' to their voice in the statements they make  I have always been very direct,  precise,  and "no-nonsense". Therefore, most of my sayings and writings reflect that same character trait. Some of my essays, poems, etc are wry, some plain truth, some are just aphoristic revelations. All from a pure place; spoken or written either in jest or complete frankness. Nevertheless, in sincerity and honesty - never meant to demean, discredit or demoralize.
