Is There A Way To Justify It All?

3 days ago

A lie is a lie no matter how it is packaged. People blow lies for different reasons; there are people who lie as a hobby. This kind of person cannot make a full statement without packaging some form of lie in it. I know of someone like that, and that brought me to the place of not taking what she says seriously because I know she is just lying. One bad thing about lies is that they do not have an end; when you tell one lie, you will also be calculating another lie, which you will use to cover the last lie.As a married woman, I met another woman who overrates things; I call that exaggeration. She paints matters too high, and what she even wants to achieve with this I don't even know.

Those kinds of people will tell you that they bought a thing that you know so well that it's sold 1k or 10k. When I noticed the kind of person she is, I made up my mind to cut down on her stories. One of the days she told me that "Jeddy Jeddy" is not a medical term. Just last month I took a soft drink that was given to me, and she was like, "Nne, you are breastfeeding and also taking sugary things, so my baby will be down with Jeddy Jeddy." I was like, "Is it a medical term?" She quickly kept calm.I have heard about some people who say that there is such a thing as a white lie. This kind of lie is told just to protect one's interest, they said.

That is to say, they tell such lies to protect their faith, and they get to say that God understands. When I hear such things, I get to laugh so loud within me. There is another situation where people do not lie about a thing, but they tend to exit a matter along the line because they feel they need to protect their image. Personally I do that on several occasions.

Now, there are people who want to know everything about a person in one blow; these are the kind of people who will go about the city singing songs with the information that is being given to them. Personally I do my best to starve such people of the information they search for. Imagine telling someone a thing in confidence, and before you know it, the information is all over social media. So to protect myself from such people, I stop my discussion where I want to stop. There are people who, when you give them too many details, it becomes an issue, so those kinds of people I don't even bother myself to do so.

Most times, lies by commission are more dangerous than the other forms of lies because by that one gets to lose his respect in many aspects. So for me it is better to openly tell the other party that there are more but you don't feel like sharing at the moment and won't love to be asked. It may sound disrespectful, but in the end it is better off. Growing up my parents warns us against lies and that we tried our best to do, today I am try all I can to pass the same to my kids. Staying truthful means a lot in today's world and beyond. Thank you for stopping by.
