JoAnn,

So glad you stopped in. And yes, telling the truth should always be your first choice since its going to be the final choice anyway. Good for you!

Blessings,
Dina

Gin,

Yes, lies and truths can both be hard to handle. But when you come from a place of authenticity, you can handle either with ease. Live from your truth and everything will be ok.

Take care,
Dina

Falsehoods aimed at luring others. I dont even like the word.. Lie. Although truth hurts agree that honesty is the best policy. It can be difficult to not want to “sugar coat” sometimes to protect others. 2 cents

I’d rather tell someone the truth no matter what because if you tell them a lie and they find out later they are not only going to be hurt, they are going to be mad. If you tell them the truth they are going to hurt so either way they are going to hurt. You will most definitely respect a person who tells the truth rather than one who lies. At least that’s how I feel. Great blog!!!

Harriet,

I’m glad the post resonated with you. I, too, am constantly looking for ways to improve my life and be more authentic. 🙂

Thank you for stopping by!

I follow a spiritual path that encourages rigorous honesty and I am continually discovering more ways to become more honest. And uncovering dishonesty can help to heal resentment and self-pity so is very powerful. Thought provoking – thank you!

Hemal,

You’re right…it’s all about being authentic. But sometimes, people don’t know who they are so being the “real” them is a mystery. The lies are their reality. My hope is that people realize that telling the truth will set them free from themselves and others in the same situation.

Thanks for your post!
Dina

Janet,

I hope you will continue to believe in yourself and allow others to find the answers they are searching for. Most of the time, the lie has nothing to do with us. We are merely the person in that moment in time for them.

Take care,
Dina

And, I’ve learned where there is one lie, there are a million. Plus, if someone lies to one person, they lie to others as well. That knowledge removed the guilt of believing for me. I know being lied to wasn’t about me; the worst thing I did was trust. It was about the liar.

When we lie we are not being authentic. We are wrapping up and shrouding our authenticity with our lies. We are covering up our light and our beauty with our ‘lies’ or inauthenticity.

And when we do this we are creating a momentum where we may have to lie more to cover up the previous lies. Lies follow lies and soon we get to a point where we do not know the lies from the truth, it all blurs into one. At that point you will have lost your sense of who you are too.

Thank you, Dina 🙂
