The Lies

The moments you cannot simply say or mention and somehow make up a story or statement to ensure that person would believe your words. To pretend with intent to deceive. The feeling of insecurity you would wish not to show, you hide your true self with words which are false.

Trying to find the right words, hesitate to answer and slowly release the words which are not true.

The lies.

There are ways for which lies can be for the good or bad use. Like how parents help to educate their children with small lies to ensure they are not easily tainted by the corruption around them. As people are born pure, naive and innocent. A little misguidance can already lead to the wrong path of life. A life which may not be easily change. For a good lie, it can help but those words need to be chosen wisely.

Lies can also be used in a way not to hurt others who you care and love. For we all have one or more things we cannot simply say or share. Everyone has their privacy from their background experiences and stories in their life. Though in a matter of trust, one can share and help to understand each other.

Like how words can be spoken truthfully but not fully. That is not a lie. We choose what we want to say. To what extent of explanation and details of the certain topic of the conversation, for that we decide.

What rights do we have if people want you to spill out every single detail of your daily life? Would you feel comfortable with that kind of attitude?

Unfortunately, lies are ways which are more profound towards the negative. For lies can easily deceive a person. What's more how lies can easily hurt more. As I have said, the truth hurts but lies are worse.

From a single lie you may or not feel the guilt inside you. Burning the living flesh inside as you keep the truth to yourself and hope it would stop from there. Slowly healing onwards. Probably thinking people would easily forgotten about it. However, the more lies you make, the more it stacks up, you may never reach to a returning point. From there on, no one would believe your words whether it is the truth or not.

People should learn to limit on what kind of lie they may say. I'm not trying to encourage. But rather, hope to understand why one has started it first. We choose not to hurt others. That is probably part of our nature as humans. As we are filled with emotions such as love and care. What good would it be if we hurt them instead?

"Our prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can't help them, at least don't hurt them." - Dalai Lama XIV

For whatever lie "you" have made, do "you" feel happy or sad?
Perhaps "you" are trying to run away from something?
We all have our reasons why do we lie but think whether it is the right or wrong thing to do.

When the time comes, "you" choose your words. As what keeps "you" from revealing the truth, that is something "you" have chosen.
