Why do people lie?
The truth is a foreign word,
you killed all my trust.

    Lying is a betrayal that cuts more deeply than a knife An act that lacks all honour and is usually done by someone too weak to speak the truth and face the ensuing consequences. Some people say they lie because truth can hurt more than the lie but personally I want to know the truth no matter how painful. You trust your friends and family to tell you the truth but you don't always get it because telling the truth requires strength and conviction the opposite of weakness and lies. Dagma another piece that is wonderfully thought provoking. Milly x

    Oh Dagmar, this is strong! Thank you for sharing such a raw write. It's hard when people lie to you and ruin that trust. It happens so often that you stop believing anything they say. Hugs my friend-
