All of us lie. We lie for different reasons. I lie when I feel that there is no other way out. I call them lies but what I actually do is not say the entire truth. As they say half truth is as good as a lie. There is one more reason I lie. I do it to amuse people. Some people call it exaggeration. Whatever new words they come up with: a lie is a lie.
But there are some reasons that irk me. Hypocrites are a species of liars I cannot stand. These people lie unnecessarily. When it is so evident that what you say has no relation to your actions, the whole purpose is lost. What they gain is absolutely over my wavelength of thought.
Then I have seen people who lie for reasons I never figured out. But that goes fine until they hurt someone.
Here a few liars in my life. No names mentioned, just the gender and the age group (to help you visualize better).
Female, age group: 8- 10;
(This girl was rampant in her lies. But I am happy to see that it was all a part of immaturity and restless mischief. She has grown to a fine person with very high principles and favors in my current list of strong characters.)
She stole a crystal piece from her sibling and hid it for pure mischief sake. She blamed it on the maid.
Result: a lot of bad vibes against the poor lady.
Female, age group: 48-55;
(This is a female with very low principles. I am yet to see a more disgraceful hypocrite)
This middle aged woman thinks that she is the only one with brains around (which I strongly disagree- her cheap thoughts often issued heartfelt pity from me). She is the kind who will praise you to dangerous heights and can’t even wait till your back is turned before calling you a damned problem with no talent whatsoever ( a second meeting with this lady is more than enough to understand her character; but she still insists on pulling the same old lines ). It’s rather a pitiful sight to watch her praise her own achievements (Boy! Do I hate this lady!).
Male, age group: 50-55;
I am worried about this age group. I find the maximum hypocrites here. I hope that it’s not a normal phenomenon. I’d hate to be under that category (I am talking about the hypocrite category, of course; and about the middle age category- well I can’t help this, can I?).
This person is too scared to face what the world would say; and tries to project everything he is not. And what is worse, he forces others to do the same. Lying is all a part of living- according to his philosophy. Denying his own happiness keeps him contended (I don’t understand this).
Male, age group: 30-35;
He will lie and hide behind his mother’s apron. What’s the most pitiful aspect is- he does not have the courage to repeat his lies in front the person he is lying about. And he puts his head high up and expects his momma dear to help him out (which she gladly will).
What’s even funnier is the way he introduces himself - ‘hello, I am so and so. I can tolerate anything but lies’. Yes sweetheart! I can see u can’t stand competition.
Female, age group: 28-32;
This specimen of the fairer sex is your normal hag. Lying to create sensation. She will even lie in her coffin if she could get the press to follow her funeral.
Male & Female Age group: Undefined. (Location: small town.J)
Now you know what I am talking about. Our very own, very talented home grown page 3 reporters. I guess, you can tell me more about them than what I can tell you.
So don’t be shy; put in your comments.
