What these walls want to say

If walls could talk, they would tell you that the people you consider your friends are the same ones that talk behind your back. You know your sister-in-law, right? The one that greets you with a hug and says nice things to you? Well, when you weren't at home, I heard her saying that your boyfriend made a mistake choosing to be with you due to the fact that you are not a great cook; she believes that you don't know what you're doing. I beg to differ. Rosani, while you are not the best cook in the house, you have not killed anyone. I have seen everyone else in the house finishing their plate when you are cooking. You do not need to copy your sister-in-law when it comes to cooking food.

If walls could talk, they would tell you to not take things to heart. I understand Ambrose can sometimes say hurtful things, but I have seen him alone, and I have seen how distressed he feels when he hurts your feelings. I wish I could hit him sometimes for his stupid comments. Remember the other day when he was saying it was a disgrace he got with you simply because you did not fold his clothes the way he wanted you to? I was thinking to myself: "Ambrose, what the hell? even if it is not folded properly, you are still going to wear your clothes." Rosani, Ambrose does love you, I can see it when he is caressing you after a heated argument. That's his way of showing you that he regrets making you cry so much.

If walls could talk, they would tell you to paint me. I am tired of looking plain and boring. Can you at least decorate me? I know you love elephants and sunflowers. Paint me in your favorite color, olive green. You can also hang some pictures or hang your favorite quotes. I am not at all pleased to have you come and just see pure white. I want you to smile when you come into this room; I want you to feel energetic and filled with joy. Anyways, do not worry about what everyone else will say.

If walls could talk, they would tell you to stop watching Tik Tok. You will soon graduate; one more year to go. But you seem to sometimes focus on non-academic things. It's okay to have free time, but I want you to stay focused on your goals. You talk so much about not loving your current job, and I would hate for you to get your degree and not get a job related to it. If you are going to work hard toward your major, make sure it is worth it. If I was a human being, I think I would focus on creating walls that are out of this world. I think people would be excited to come home to walls that look rare.

If walls could talk, they would tell you every day that you are beautiful. They would tell you to stop believing that straight hair equals beauty. I love your wavy hair. You glow when you do not try to change yourself. If you change yourself, it should make you happy. Stop hating your soft voice. Hearing it feels soothing. Stop judging your appearance, if you only focus on that, then you will believe that your looks will impact everything that happens to you. Being pretty does not mean you will pass a test.

Would you ever listen to me? I am simply a wall, but I have heard all your emotions. I have heard your struggles and frustrations. I want you to know that I will never complain about you complaining.
