There have been alot of thoughts rumbling around my brain about the truths as we see in ourselves and what we let others see. My pen and ink diary entry last night was an exploration to the true answer as to why I am not married and the answer I give publicly versus the answer I know to be the full truth. Alot of the musing has been provoked by something else dealing with someone else who is unable to see some truths about herself and I was blamed for her current state of unhappiness. Pretty vague in the telling, I know, but.....
Why do we lie so much to ourselves and others? All it achieves for me is a feeling of being twisted up into emotional knots and spending a great deal of time trying to see my way through the self-induced fog. Some one once said to me that with me, what you see is what you get and I took that to be a compliment. Falseness and deception are things that I try to avoid. Most times, it means that I do not play the social game very well, but that is okay if it means that I am true to myself.
