I realise that everyone lies at some point of time or another. U lie, i lie and everyone lies. Thats life. No one is perfect. Sometimes people lie to escape & sometimes they simply lie for their friends. This shouldn't be something to be proud of but here come the obvious truth---> I have lied before. I mean, who hasn't lied before right? Day in day out, people lie. No one is allowed to judge another person because none of us are perfect. To look at it in a wider perspective, the world is full of liars. Some people lie for the benefit of others while some people simply lie to escape from something that they have done. I remember there was this time not too long ago when i was in sec sch, my teacher punished my classmates and me for skipping remedial classes and lying to her that we were at the library studying, when in actual fact, we were at swensens indulging in ice-creams of all kind. See, i told ya that i am not perfect. Right now as i mature, i tell myself that no matter what happens, i have to speak the truth and have the honesty to answer for my actions whatever they may be. Lies i realise, get bigger and bigger as one lies and lies to cover up the lies told before. Why not save the trouble by simply speaking the truth right? sometimes reality may seem scary and its hard to speak the truth, but one must always have the responsibilty for answering one's actions. To some people, lying is a hobby. They lie and lie to the extent that they find it tough to differentiate between the lies they told and reality.I cannot lie by saying that i will never lie again, but i can always try not to lie. Lies do not help the situation or rather it just makes things worse. So why bother lying? Once again i want to re-emphasise on the fact that as human beings, we are all not perfect. There is a certain flaw in each and everyone of us. Flaws which only others can see and flaws which we should learn to recgonise and thus change for the better.
