Do or Think

This is me again lost in my thoughts. Do you always have to think if what you are doing is right or wrong and try and do what you feel is presumed to be right or will be taken as the right thing by others. What should one do in those situations, you feel like doing something or saying something, you are not sure if that would be taken in a wrong spirit by someone, you might end up hurting someone.
You pull back and stay silent.
There are moments in life where all life demands from you is the speak your heart out and not contemplate if what you are doing is right or wrong.
Happened to me twice during my flight to Chicago, there was this young girl who was physically challenged (May be she was mentally challenged too, from her looks), she was with her mother at the airport. I was finishing up my lunch at pizza hut in the airport, when I happen to see this girl.
Even though she was challenged she had an amazing smile and I felt like walking up to her and telling her that she had a great smile. Then I get into my thoughts of whether it is appropriate or not, should I tell her mom about it or her, will she understand what I told her if she is challenged.... will she think I a being sympathetic.... The devil in my thought goes on while the flight attendant announces the start of boarding for the flight. Mom and daughter pull into the gate for boarding their flight and I stand there still thinking...................... Not too much worried about the girl at the airport but other situations where all I did was some stupid thinking.........
