lying to yourself

i just got off the phone with a friend who has been telling himself the same lie for so long, he believes it

absurd as it, ridiculous as it is, far fetched as it is he believes it

when we get to this point all the talking, consulting, professional help won’t do a damn bit of good………………………………..he will have to find out on his own, in terms he can’t deny…………………..and unfortunately they are going to be very painful………………………but if that what he needs, life will give them to him

and the words I have heard coming out of my own mouth……………………..”people tried to warn me…………………..i should have known……………………i guess i was lying to myself……………………….it’s too late now” will be coming out of his mouth, just a matter of time

the inability to be honest with yourself has only one conclusion, the feces will hit the fan, you will stand there bewildered and these words will cross your mind…………………………………………………”this could have been prevented, this is my fault”

and maybe, maybe you will learn………….if you are like me it may take a few more episodes
