The Truth
I read a saying, “Truth is still truth even if no one believes it, and a lie is still a lie even if everyone believes it”. How true. I usually have a tough time relaying truth across as I lack the conviction to do so. Not because I’m afraid of the truth, but more on whether the receiving party believes in it. Yes, I think too much. Sue me.
Still, I try. Some quarters have made up stories about me and lied to my old friends and people from the past, and some have bought it. Although it hurts knowing that my friends rather believe a third party then finding out my side of the story, I don’t bother to contact them to explain. There’s no point since it’s already a judgment that they passed on me.
It helps differentiate friends and families. All I know is, in time, the truth shall prevail.
Damn. This could be my darkest post yet, but surely I’m entitled to one, no?
Okla, not too dark ma. I used to think I can be blunt and tell it as it is but as I age I think it gets harder and harder. Not because I can’t, but often I think what good is it to the other end anyway, and how receptive the other person is, or whether is it my place anyways to say anything at all. If it does no good to anyone then I would just move on and forget it. I have also learn to choose my friends. Life is too short . Today I met an ex cancer patient and he says there are no more long term plans. He only has short term plans.
