The Truth is The Only Constant!

From my own experience, insight and understanding of life and the different connecting points that we call our "days" and "Years", it is no secret that the truth is absolute. Just as we know that an orange can never be blue, unless genetically altered, in which case, it is now a questionable fruit. The truth cannot be anything else, it is what it is, a constant within a changing realm.

When we are young, most of us come across the fact that we can tell a "lie" in order to substitute the satisfaction of a good outcome from a cornered situation, such as the situation of taking candy from a store, and eating it before getting caught, and say you never took it. The evidence will be on your tongue, as all candies usually have a color that is left on your tongue for a few hours. As we evolve, and we increasingly become more aware of situations, our mind is more equip to handle more complex "lies". However, this creates an unseen problem for most. As the mind grows, it retains a memory bank, regardless of whether the experience is true or a lie. For a person who is a Chronic Liar, the truth and the "Lie" become intermingled and soon become a working part of the person's brain. No matter how simple a situation is, if that person's mind thinks there is any threat at all, of an uncomfortable outcome, a lie is immediately created to patch that outcome so the odds of a favorable outcome is now increased. The problem is that now there is a corrupted memory bank that serves as a reference point for future analysis of situations, environments, conversations and memory.

We all heard of the saying at some point "You must bend when it is young", and although it slips past many of us, it is a very profound statement. Because if this "negative energy" continues throughout a young person's life into adulthood, that person will not be someone that many people will trust, or be relied on for anything. And in turn, will not have trustworthy friends to gain any additional knowledge or support from.

Why does this matter? Well, if you need some advice, or help, or support in a time of crisis, in need of help making a decision, need insight from a person not affected by a situation you are in, it will be very hard. Often times, just like giving someone a paper you have just written, to look it over, they will find errors that you cannot see, because you are "in" the paper and cannot look from outside unless you put that paper down and re-read it some days later, and even then, you will miss some errors.

Be true to yourself, and make strong your decisions, for no matter how far you run, or how deep you hide, there are lessons in life that we cannot avoid, we must learn them and advance to another stage in our personal evolution. When we face a situation such as punishment or embarrassment, it is a lesson in itself that if not learned, will repeat itself as many times as necessary until you "get it" and evolve. So the next time you think about lying to avoid an argument, avoid an uncomfortable outcome or decision, just remember that it is only for the better of your entire being, that you face your fears, adversaries and situations in order to become a better, stronger, person, spirit and essence of humanity.
