In my opinion, the greatest fear in life is not
death. The greatest fear in life is to end up alone. That is why every single
day of our lives, we lie. Even when we have no reason to, we lie. We lie about
our well-being, we lie about our background, we lie about our situation, we lie
about our past, and we just keep lying. Because we are so afraid that people
will not accept us as we are. We have to try and fit in to other people’s
worlds. We feel like our truth is so ugly that we will be rejected and judged
by it.
Whether your life is going the way you want it to or
not, just be happy and never stop to think about what your life was…. Think
about what you are going to make your life be. Being good does not cost a dime,
be good to everyone whether they hurt you or not just be good. Everyone has
their own baggage that they carry from their past. Most of us are not okay
because we carry so much pain in our hearts for so long. And you just have no
one to talk to because no one truly understands. We might have gone through
similar things but the experience is never the same.
So many times, you think that you can open up to a
friend, parent or spouse about whatever you are going through and expect them
to understand. But the sad truth is, they will never understand because they do
not feel what you feel. They can only go so far as to listen, comfort, talk and
be with you. Some of us are surrounded by so many friends but how many do you
think you can truly talk to openly about everything, about your life? Most of
them will only want to be there during the good times but will not want to
listen to your ugly truth.
The most honest people in life have very few
friends. When you have been through a lot in life and had no one to really talk
to. You learn to keep quiet because silence is better than a lie. Most people
say that they want to hear the truth but honestly they do not want to hear it. We
take our friends for granted and when they are gone is when you start to
appreciate them and wish you had been there for them as much as they were for
you. So most nights,… you cry yourself to sleep and wake up the next day
refreshed. Because you have to be “okay”.
