Kind truths: honesty with a gentle voice, sentence 2

Kind truths often mix three things: notice the real good, say the true thing gently, and offer help, like "the chorus is catchy, the drums need work, want to practise?"

Who acts: Kind truths, chorus, drums · What happens: mix, notice, say, offer, be, need · To what, where: three things, real good, true thing, help, work · Speech: someone speaks here
