Liar Liar.. Pants on fire.. we all know this and have read this too..
But the question is why do we lie..
For last few days I'm terribly depressed about a close person who is lying to me.. I don't know why.. is being honest and showing the naked self hurts so much? What are we scared of? Being caught being someone the other person isn't aqare of..
I'm not boasting here to be the biggest truthful person ever born but yes.. I've also lied thinking about change of perception for the other person.
Can't we simply be honest and see find out if we are acceptable to others.. being caught a liar anyway will land up nowhere. Isn't it more peaceful to be honest and be rejected than be accepted for something we truly are..
Lies are big or small.. white or black!! But what it attaches big is trust!!
When have you lied being in the most vulnerable situation I believe..
Let's share our lies and maybe confession helps or if you just want to keep it to your heart.. be it!! But sometimes it becomes necessary to face those lies with ourselves. Have you ever faced the mirror and confessed to ourselves??

How do you define a lie...Something not said or wrongly said.....not revealed or told incorrectly. Many a times we need to remain silent just because of the circumstances & keeping in mind the consequences or repurcussions following it. Life is complicated & even your inspiration from Mahabharat Yudisthir was not an exception
ReplyDeleteFYI Yudhishthir never lied.. He said truth only but due to Krishnas conspiracy his full sentence couldn't be heard due to loud background noise.. he wasn't a liar!
ReplyDeleteFor me half truth and untold truth and hidden truth all are different varieties of lies..
Lie is nothing but hidden truth!!
