Why do we lie?

We lie because it helps us to escape a situation which may not be

pleasant.

The curse of lying is that it develops in us the ‘attitude to escape’.

The blessing of honesty is that it develops in us the ‘ attitude to face’.

If you want to hit the top you need the ‘attitude to face ’ everything

in life.And, what will shape this attitude in you? Honesty!

We lie because we fear being judged by others.

We fear being judged because we judge others.

Love others as though they were yourself and you will find no reason to lie.

It's all a mirror.

And if the truth can be to painful. What then? Lie? Say nothing?

Too painful for who?

Be impeccable with your words & make no assumptions. You only know what you perceived with your senses, so try not to add to the story.

It is really none of your business how your words are received. Try not to concern yourself with that.

I trust my intuition. If it needs to be said, I'll be presented with the right moment. Then the right words tend to flow through me.

Lying tends to cause more pain.

It’s definitely a tight rope walk. Being deliberate and intentional can still have consequences that are not intended.

Not saying something is still lying by omission. And sometimes, for the better. Must be done.

I disagree. In situations like these. It is my business how others receive my words.

If i was to be honest and forthcoming in my beliefs with my neighbours about the vaccines. I can almost guarantee I would no longer have a strong relationship with them.

Even though they have sheeple tendencies, we still help each other out.

If that is what you believe, then that will be your experience.

CV was an excellent opportunity to express your truth. It took courage under the gas lighting that was occurring. Manipulation through false social consensus.

You don't have to concern yourself with how others perceive your truth. Expressing it is enough.

My neighbor prefaced her take when the vax came out that she will do what her doc tells her to because he spent the time to get licensed.

Some people are simply lost. I engage with people I semse are apt to change.

The rest i just 🍿 (in affect, lying by omission)

I dgaf what others think. Id like to make that clear.
