Try to act only from love & never fear. I've observed that will all action from fear results in undesirable outcomes.
Expression is action.
Why are you expressing? Is it from a fear of not being respected or loved? How much the expression is about supporting your ego? The ego is a fragile entity because it dies with your physical body. The greater you is immortal.
Asking yourself if your expression is coming from a place of love or fear will help shape how you express your truth.
