Lying

The truth is that everyone lies from time to time. Small lies to spare someone’s feelings (eventually if someone finds out you’re lying then you’ll have another issue to deal with), omissions to avoid revealing too much, and yes, even blatant attempts to mislead are all examples of how lies can work their way into everyday communication. Lying is never good.

The worst thing about being lied to is knowing that you’re not worth the truth.

They lie again and again.

Dishonesty is their calling card.

Sometimes they don’t even seem to know what is true and what is false.

Welcome to the world of pathological liars.

Pathological lying is a mental disorder in which the person habitually lies. The reason for such lies often serves no obvious purpose other than to paint oneself as a hero or victim depending on the circumstance.

If anyone claims to always tell the truth, they are almost certainly lying.

But most of us can say with some honesty that we try to keep our lies to a minimum.

For the pathological liars, however, lying is a way of life. They tell lies more often than they tell the truth.

You cannot change someone who does not see an issue with their actions.

Life is not at all a bed of roses and everyone must face lies or dishonesty sooner or later.

As it is unavoidable, learning how to deal with liars is essential to restoring your inner peace, keeping your reputation sound, and sparing yourself some pitiful consequences.

Remember: there’s nothing better than a peace of mind.

If your mind is at peace, you are happy. If your mind is at peace, but you have nothing else, you can be happy. If you have everything the world can give – pleasure, possessions, power – but lack peace of mind, you can never be happy.
