People of the Lie
Bad People
What causes people to lie to themselves, lie to their friends, and lie to loved ones? Are we as a society so out of touch with reality that we can’t even understand what it means to care about and love someone? I don’t believe that the majority of mature people are out of touch but I’m afraid there are many young people like that out there. Primarily because they are selfish. I used to be very selfish, but if you read my post “What’s In It for Me,” you will see that I have changed my life. By the way, the title of this post, “People of the Lie,” is a book by M. Scott Peck… a great psychologist, best known for his work, “The Road Less Traveled.” I think everyone needs to read “The Road Less Traveled” at least twice. So why are a lot of young people in our society so selfish and oblivious to what really matters in life? Do I really need to answer that question? Just read some of my own posts such as Why Young People are Scared of Tying the Knot, and you’ll get a sense of the detachment of our young culture from the things that really matter.
What can we do? I believe that “supply and demand” will work things out in the end. People with no sense of commitment or that live life in complete selfishness will eventually realize the err of their ways and will either change their lives or be miserable for the rest of their lives. There’s really no alternative. I just hope the People of the Lie realize the damage they are causing to other peoples lives before they do too much harm to people they come in contact with while on this earth. Please do whatever you can to improve yourself and be honest with your friends, family and everyone you meet. People truly deserve to know the truth and this world will be a much better place when people are honest with themselves, their friends, and their loved ones. You have the power to change your life, your attitude, your actions, and how you treat people. Make a decision right now to do the right thing for everyone in your life right now and in the future.
