Honesty = vulnerability. The white lies we tell to hide what we really think or want. The shells we live in, to appease the expectations of others, even though the confined space is killing us. The fear of losing love or its perceived security, our inability to detach, leaves us gasping for air. Surrounded by mountains of inaccurate statements and misleading sentiments to keep others interested. Compounding exponentially, our debt of lies suffocates any possibility of freedom. That is until you tell the truth. Those butterflies, that strange but familiar bottomless pit in your stomach that you so desperately attempt to avoid. The feeling after you realize the light you seek, that release you desire will only be obtained after the weight has been lifted. But now the aftermath. The journey from lie to turmoil to truth to turmoil to acceptance....Embrace the pain, repay the debt with truth!
