The So Called "Truth"

Knowing and not knowing. Ignorance is bliss. You want the truth? You can't handle the truth. Who decided this? Why is honesty so hard? Yeah, sure, you tell so called "little white lies" in order to preserve somebody's feelings, but are you actually preserving their feelings, or yours? In most cases, honesty is all I've asked for, but I don't know how much of the time I get it. There are times when I know for sure that someone is being completely honest to me, I just wish it was always. Why can't you give me your real, and totally honest opinion of me? Don't fake friendship to fulfill some sort of false sense of morality in the pit of your stomach. I'd rather know why someone hates than why they faked liking me. To "put up" with someone isn't to be their friend. I don't know how many people actually do this, but by lying to others, aren't you in turn lying to yourself? I also believe that by hating someone, you must care about them to some degree, but that's for another rant.

Let's be honest, who hasn't lied? EVERYONE lies. We all might as well be politicians for as much as we lie. To get out of a previous engagement, to get out of work, a relationship, whatever, we've all lied. I can say I've lied, but I can also say I have probably been far more honest so far than a lot of people have been their entire lives, and I'd be lying right now if I pretended I had more in my mind right now to keep going, but I am tired, I want to listen to music, relax, and figure out what I'm going to do about my current situation with people and their false assumptions of me. This post wasn't so much insightful as it was just me releasing a bit of steam.
