Quiet lies result in falsified attempts. We can only obtain peace through sincere truth and a heart-felt mind.

We cannot speak of change, if our mouths are sealed with lies.

Our successes in life reside in a place where we recognize what our potential holds, and in turn, what must be done to arrive at a place that grants the outcomes we want. We all have told a lie at some point, and most of us become uncomfortable in doing so. Wether it is a lie that holds deep reason or one that is built with shallow rationale, they happen without thought sometimes.

This is not usually recognized until a lie has turned on itself enough to hold a different story that we can’t remember how to tell. I lied about the things I was doing and the pain I experienced as a result. I also lied to myself about the torture that I caused all of the people I cared about. I saw this happen enough to distance myself from my loved ones. Within building a person that had lost an understanding of telling the truth, I lost every reason that I once had to change. My life became a rest stop for truth I wanted and the twisted realities that would support the reasons I needed to remain stuck. Eventually, I became overbearingly angry with the embarrassment that this cause not only me, but the label it had placed on my own mental description of self.

This was when not only did I not want to, but I could not lie anymore. My life turned around and finally got to a point of searching for my next change instead of unknowingly committing to my next destruction.

What will you do today to be honest with yourself enough to create a reason to no longer feed your demons their daily meals?
