I was discussing the same topic with my friends, because I had a new acquaintance that had a tendency of lying even about petty things, the excuse being, sometimes a lie is an easy harmless way out. I found myself thinking, how much can I really trust this person, and if I cannot trust her, how can I be friends with her??

Believe me the lies about petty things are still there, and all of sudden I realise there has been lies about serious stuff too, and I’m being lied to…

If you lie about where you are just because you feel like it, how can I trust that you are not lying about your entire being??

Have had a few moments recently where I spoke from the heart. Seem to be doing it more often now. The scary part is how I haven’t been. How I lost myself to others. How I found it so difficult to be me again. It’s not easy being honest. But it’s much, much harder the other way.

I have neva understood why it is hard to “come to our selves” ~ok let me nt generalise n let me fess up I’m talkin bout myself …I still find it hard to be authententic and practise transparency because sumtyms peeps use that to their advantage and for ill gain. So sumtyms it’s easier for moa to put on social masks with the rest of the masses with my friends, family and with my boo I try to be authentic as I can be. I dunno maybe Im just a hypocrite like that wouldn’t like to think of myself as one though…Trust can sometimes be abused…*thinking hard*
