Some people spend their whole lives lying to themselves, being deceitful to others and fabricating a false/fake impression about themselves. I wonder how they are able to do this.
If you haven't noticed it by now, my blog is one based on honesty. From all the people in my periphery, I am proud to say that I am the most honest one. Rarely do I lie/pretend for I don't really have big issues to conceal. Or perhaps I do have certain issues that are meant to be hidden but I am not embarrassed by sharing them with the rest of the world because every other person must have gone through what I have, if not more and worst.
And since I consider myself an honest person, my problem lies in accepting liars. Not the ones who lie about their day-to-day activities but the ones who lie to themselves and the rest of the world about who they really are.
Take for example our secretary: she is loud, rude, thrives on gossip, seldom does she do her job or even help, ....I can sit here and count the nasty things about her but you got my point. Well, what surprises me is that when she talks to her husband, she is soft-spoken, quiet, shy, sweet which keeps me wondering whether her husband of 10 years has ever seen her nasty, demonic side. This woman, therefore, has lied to herself and her husband for the past 10 years.
My mother has always advised me that this woman's way is the way to be with a partner. That this partner should never see any of your bad qualities or habits. But I disagree because doesn't loving someone come with the package of accepting their faults too?
Please tell me that there is nothing wrong with my ideals: that one should remain true to one's own self before even attempting to please others.
Or am I simply a believer of the 'Utopian' relationship that is far-etched from reality?
Haven't had lunch yet so I'm craving this dish from FinZ:
Till we meet again,Sedeso
PS: tonight is the marketing exam and maybe my only chance to leave an impression on Jaber? Wish me lots of luck and attractiveness.
