Yeah!! good for you!!
I need to stop lying too. scared of telling the truth right now, and need to have more courage to tell the truth.thanks for your encouragement
Yeah, telling the truth is scary at first, but then it gets easier. Lying is actually scarier for me now, because I have to think up something good as a lie, then remember the lie, then hope they don’t catch me, too much stress.
The best benefit you get from being honest though is that when you stop colouring your words, ie: emblishment and exaggeration, after a while your words become even more true. It’s more like, you stop just being able to tell the truth and start being able to say what you really mean. You start being able to express yourself like you never have before. Other people listen to you, and they understand you clearly, because you yourself are clear.
The freedom that comes from being able to fully express yourself is far better that any temporary success you get from lying. :)
thats tremendous, i struggle so much with embellishment and colouring what i say. its like i feel that who i really am is not good enough, that i am frightened just to be me and people wont like me if i am just me. but i know that christ is my all and i want to be more like jesus, i want every word that comes out of my mouth to be the truth and not a lie. i need to change.
