premise: It was n't easy and sometimes , it 's still not easy . I think there are times we forget how hard we can be on the people we love and how hard the people we love can be on us . There 's danger in trying to protect the people we love from ourselves - I do n't mean in an abusive sense - but rather in the sense that we ca n't share our fears , our anxieties and our frustrations . When we do n't want to expose the people or the person in our lives to the part of ourselves that we consider negative . What might happen if we show our true selves to the people we love ?
hypothesis: They would not love us anymore because of our negativity
