We know it's not real so is this why we don't fear it. <br /><br />We all don't like being hurt so maybe that is why we never really want to hear the truth but then again if we don't hear it we lose the trust. <br /><br />This is a never ending circle we have created.musicwithinyouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14024317988744024838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8269120272474965191.post-76664831904796915992012-03-01T18:30:45.324-08:002012-03-01T18:30:45.324-08:00Truth - now that is a subject would could discuss ...Truth - now that is a subject would could discuss forever. I love a quote a friend of my husband's had. "The truth is negotiable. Perceptions are rock solid." I don't know if he adopted that quote before or after he served many years as an assistant principal.<br /><br />I seek truth. I try not to be afraid of it. I prefer to read fiction.Sally Wesselyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06470453773515491625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8269120272474965191.post-73247062117320174342012-03-01T11:42:30.361-08:002012-03-01T11:42:30.361-08:00it says we're lazy and we want to be lied to. ...it says we're lazy and we want to be lied to. and then when we're lied to we get all crazy but it is really only a ruse, a lazy crazy that we don't have to do too much about except complain. we're a bunch of damn fools:) or at least, so it seems to me (myself included) even in this other country.<br /><br />xo<br />erinerinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16636371927224076866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8269120272474965191.post-29211992778019214142012-03-01T07:35:05.089-08:002012-03-01T07:35:05.089-08:00Fiction is definitely escapism from the truth of t...Fiction is definitely escapism from the truth of the real world for me Rosaria.LindyLouMachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12282788551449445133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8269120272474965191.post-4571108405230864722012-03-01T02:46:50.356-08:002012-03-01T02:46:50.356-08:00You remind me of what I went through last presiden...You remind me of what I went through last presidential election.

How things are now or were then, but not how they will always be, or even how they were an hour or a day after the photo was taken. Perhaps that helps with dealing with the forever pictures painted by the politicians.<br /><br />PS I follow your Presidential election with considerable interest too.Perpetuahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01214396019726161983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8269120272474965191.post-3056919750817198802012-02-29T09:18:37.865-08:002012-02-29T09:18:37.865-08:00It's the political season, and I'm trying ...It's the political season, and I'm trying not to get too excited!!!Rosaria Williamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03133147851332084180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8269120272474965191.post-80038686516228331532012-02-29T09:15:34.365-08:002012-02-29T09:15:34.365-08:00Can the whole truth ever really be told, Rosaria? ...Can the whole truth ever really be told, Rosaria?
