The Ultimate Deception... The Biggest Challenge

Lies...we've all been there..hurt by the betrayal that comes with being lied to. ..and then the inevitable loss of trust that follows ..the rug pulled out from under our feet . after all what are trust and commitment other than the comfort and safety we experience between each other.. the mechanisms that allows us to explore and love each other with no risk to ourselves.. the mechanisms that allow people to reach out to each other in the assurance they will not be deliberately hurt... in short trust and commitment is our passport to knowing each other intimately.. without it we are ultimately alone.

So we look to others for honesty...but in our pursuit of trust we often miss the biggest deception of all... the lies we tell ourselves..
We all do it in varying degrees .. its human..carnal...and its the hardest thing to challenge. . because honesty requires self examination... and self criticism.. and dare we say it ... change...
No sincere apology or genuine self actualization can happen without it..

So the challenge is this..to stop.. think...ask.. what are you deceiving yourself about? .......
Have you got the courage to face up to the lies you tell yourself... do you even know what they are.. are you searching for the truth or your truth...are you fighting for whats right or to be right...because the difference is huge....
