"You can't just sit down and talk about the truth. It doesn't work that way. You have to live it and be part of it and you might get to know it." |
--Rolling Thunder, CHEROKEE |
We all read books that have much information in them. Often we pick up on little sayings that we remember. Inside of us is the little owl, the owl of knowing. It talks to us- guiding us and nurturing us. Often when we get information, it's hard to live by, but it's easy to talk about. It's living the Red Road that counts-Walk the Talk. If we really want freedom in our lives, if we really want to be happy, if we really want to have peace of mind, it's the truth we must seek. |
So, for me, it's like this way... You can lie to those you come in contact with, and they will Never (maybe) know. You can lie to yourself, but eventually those lies will turn on you and bite yer bum...but you Can NOT lie to Creator.
Lying takes so very much energy, and then you have to remember whom you told what... and your life it becomes all twisted and like a nightmare.
Lying, it causes so very much hurt, to others and to yourself. It can destroy you and your loved ones and your relationships with others.
Truth, when presented in a brutal manner can hurt as well, as can the absence of words, those things hidden by silence and/or omission.....but honesty, presented w/ empathy and caring for another person's feelings... well it is a healing thing.
We owe it to ourselves, our loved ones and the world at large to be honest in our lives. Everything would be so much easier if the lies ended.
