From the cortex chambers ventriliquists speak with their distant voices probing the soul's quiet palace. They demand necessities: Amen - and forgiveness; they repair despair, teaching lessons from straw to sticks to bricks. . Yet what sad reality, the acceptance of the mediating value of lies, when the truth was never better. Why is it some disguise body and mind, until they are forced into the open exposed by their glib shallow rote? . While, all the voices in the palace, ventriloquists of inner thought, remain quantum reminders, that from the heart, to the great light that fills the sky, all accept the gift of consciousness - and in the end, it comes down to the truth of the matter. true love never looks after it's own interests |

"...when the truth was never better."... That's so frequently the case these days! yeesh! I don't fall for it either and enjoyed the vent! good rule when I was young, was told "never to lie, then you won't have to remember everything you have said" take care ~d Open arms can be the most fragile in the world... |

Superbly written and so deeply true. It is very difficult to have a conversation with somebody who lies. What is the point of listening to what they say which you either know not to be true - or of which you know that there is a likelihood (no matter how small or great the likelihood is) of it not being true? |
