Hello you beautiful soul! 🌏🙏
People don’t lie to you because they want to protect you because the truth will hurt your feelings. Usually they lie to you because they are afraid that the truth might provoke you to make the choices that won’t serve their interests.
I really dislike when someone assumes things about me, especially when those assumptions have nothing to do with me. This includes if someone decides ‘to protect’ me by not to telling me the truth because they think I’m going to get mad. So, they decide to LIE.
Oh.. pardon my French but that’s complete and utter bulls..t.
Yours is to tell the truth. If I get mad.. let me get mad. You don’t get to decide what is right for me!
It’s not only being rude, it’s being manipulative.
Your responsibility is to (be my friend and) tell me the truth and my responsibility is to manage it.
You are not doing this to protect me(others), but to protect yourself! You don’t want to be a ‘bad cop’ because you are afraid, they will change their opinion about you.
You decide to manipulate someone else’s life and maybe take it in a totally unwanted direction. And who are you to decide for others?!
Thus, some of issues are:
1. You care what others think of you.
2. People who ‘love you’, don’t love real you, they love the image of you that you created.
3. You are not loyal to them but to your needs of them.
4. You don’t want them to change their opinion about you, you care about yourself and not about them.
Think vice versa! How would you react?
If someone lies to you.. that’s an act of egoism and irresponsibility, lack of respect. As a result, lies can create more problems than you can imagine. And maybe you have already experienced it.
‘They don’t lie to you because the truth will hurt your feelings. They lie to you because the truth might provoke you to make the choices that won’t serve their interests.’
Remember, you don’t get to decide what is good for others, based on your personal opinion.
Allow others to decide what is good for them.
Thus to conclude: The truth, IF NECESSARY (it’s up to you to feel it), no matter how hard it is, it has to be told. Of course, not everything in life is fun and some truths are especially hard to say and accept. It’s not going to be easy but.. find the way to do it. And what you can do is to let(help) them face the truth.. instead of hiding behind lies and manipulation.
Or would you rather be living in a lie?
‘Better the hard truth, I say, than the comforting fantasy.’
Your actions speak about you! So, if you are lying.. what does it say about you?
Depending on when you’re reading this, I wish you either a beautiful day or a good night, you beautiful soul! 🙏🌏
Love and namaste,
