"For every good reason there is to lie, there is a better reason to tell the truth."
Bo Bennett
Lies. Something I don.t think I can tolerate. No, I know I can.t. I played the part of a fool in love blinded by…..what in the fuck was I blinded by? More questions than answers but I digress. I just can.t handle when people lie. It.s like, what.s your point? I mean, you have your variations of how serious a lie is. For instance, “I have a stomach virus so I won.t be able to make it into work today.” THOSE lies, I understand. The ones that throw me for a loop are, “She.s just a friend” or “He ain.t shit. I.m not fuckin with him anymore”. Sssoooo, I guess I look like a moron huh? I just don.t understand what is SO hard about telling the truth. I feel like people choose not to tell me things because they assume I.m going to react a certain way. You rob me of that choice when you decide to lie. If it.s something that could potentially hurt me, I.m not going to act an ass, especially in public. I don.t need to cause a scene. I don.t know, maybe I.m overthinking about this, but this is what I do best.
And what the hell is up with people trying to be sneaky these days? There.s ALWAYS that big mouth sucka who is going to give it or themselves away by bragging. Nothing is a secret anymore and that is so sad. I.ve learned that if I ever want some of my personal business to stay a secret, I will tell nobody but God. I have a lot of people come to me in confidence with personal information. I always keep it to myself because I KNOW what it feels like when your secret gets told and you.re left for the world to see a part of your soul you never expected them to see. And they stare. And wisper. And assume they know you when only they know the outcome. Never did they ask what you went through to get to that conclusion. And 10 times out of 9, they.ve fabricated a lie that is so off the wall that you try to wrap your mind about how they came up with that ridiculous concept. Lies. It.s funny the damage they do when the truth was going to hurt 6 times less that what you just put them through.
I.m convinced that our society is cool with all the lies. I just can.t get jiggy with that shit. Tell me the truth. Have faith in me that I will be able to handle it like a mature adult, don.t cancel me out by lying. I swear I.m just going to just join the club.
