It is a poor idea to lie to yourself

Do we lie to ourselves? 

Are we going to be honest with ourselves or are we going to lie again to ourselves about the answer or this question?

Let us admit, we do lie to ourselves and I think for a change we must be honest. It is a poor idea to lie to ourselves. It is in our nature to lie, especially to ourselves, but think about it. We know the truth, but we still lie to ourselves. The worst part is that we believe the lie. 

We, the human beings think that we are so clever, but to lie to ourselves we show the exact opposite. Actually it is more, we try to lie to ourselves. It is the poorest idea. Are we that bright as we think? I don't think so. 

We try to get away from the truth but we can't. We must face the truth and deal with it. Most of the lies that we lie to ourselves is our fault. Just the word lie makes me sad, and if we 'believe' all the lies we sell to ourselves, where will we end up? 

I think we must stand up against ourselves and fight the poor idea to lie to ourselves. We must make sure, when we pick up the mirror, we don't see a liar. What we see in the mirror, is how other people experience us.

  1. It is sad to think that we are able to fool ourselves, and that we do it so often. By lying to ourselves we only end up hurting ourselves and probably others as well, because we know the only reason we lie to ourselves usually is when we are trying to justify something that is wrong. Why don't we listen to that little voice inside our head telling us that what we are "selling" to ourselves is a lie?

  2. They say that the average person lies at least once a day. I thin it’s true, we lie for different reasons; even if it’s just to safe someone’s feelings.
