It’s high time for honesty. I am sick of the pretense. Tired of people trying to be who they aren’t. Unexposed by God’s lavish love. I, for one, want to be brutally honest. No stone unturned in my life. Can I do it here? Am I willing to lay myself bare? Willing to butcher the sacred cows?ÂÂ
I yearn for honesty, even if it’s hard honesty. I am tired of comfort. I want to be slapped around with the truth about myself, so I can fight for other souls in this life without any false bravado. I want to know what it’s like to feel alive again, kind of like in the movie Fight Club.
I don’t know where this journey will go. Are you willing to join me?
Unfortunately as people we can only relate to one another as we would like to relate to ourselves. For example, no one wants to be told that their new hair style is terrible or their food tastes terrible and so, when asked for our opinion it is common place to just lie if only for a peaceful environment. We’re conditioned that way – to be nice… not honest. Honesty and being ‘nice’ run parallel in life.
Hmmm, what is honesty, is it opinion or interpretation, is it fact or personal taste. To be honest may involve majority or minority impact. So my question is, do you seek honesty or personal opinion. I totally agree with you about people putting up a facade, Dr Seuss was dead on when he said, “be who you are and say what you feel, because those who matter don’t mind and those that mind don’t matter”.
