People who lie

It is the hope of one that he or she can trust another. Lie's create the inability to trust. However, in the mind of the liar, it may be, that they were given a choice of the lesser of two evils.
The question would then be, would it hurt them more to know the truth, or could trust be gained if the truth were told regardless the outcome.
SOMETIMES, The outcome for telling the truth is worse ( in this life ) for being honest, however, The WORD says that ALL liars shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone. ( not to be preaching ) but truth is truth. Teach trust by example, through love and forgiveness and you won't have to worry about the lie's.

Teddy I like your response. The past few days, I've caught people in major lies..and at times wondered, if they lie to get a conversation started. I'm hard to talk to at times I'm aware of this. Lately, it's been harder to approach me because of the things life has thrown at me. I'm not rude or harsh; I've been vague and I haven't been passive; I'm known to be very passive. When I hear people lie, I just let it go, drop whatever is on my mind and begin to have a conversation. I've done it before...lied to grab that person's attention or exaggerate on a story to make them laugh; when I was younger, I would not tell them the rest was added; as I grew, at the end, I would say I made the rest up because it sounded funny and it made the person laugh. So I wonder if people do the same thing when I catch them lie...because I have meet people who lie and there's no point; or lie because they want to hurt you... =/

The thing about human nature is that we are ever changing to fit our situation.
It is like being in an airplane and your coming in for a landing, in most cases the wind is right , the angle is right and the speed is right. so very little worry on the touch down. BUT , when all these factors are uncertain the approach is apprehensive and mistakes are made. That's when we readjust to fit the situation and we are not always successful and we hurt other people in the process. Being clear on how you feel about things in an nonaggressive manner will leave no room for guessing on the others part for approach. if then they choose to lie , then they are not comfortable with truth or they are not your true friends UNLESS they are trying in some way to protect you. Either way, it is the approach that will give you the more perfect landing.
