Lying to ourselves
Is the biggest of lies
Surely leading us all
To a premature death
To true, one of the biggest and cruelest things we can do is to deceive ourselves in being people we are not. Bravo Richard!
What an incredible interesting observation! And a great truth! Congratulations, Richard. Top score
Your observations and truths are what continue to inspire me, my friend! Thanks so very much for your support, my friend!
When we acknowledge that self-deceit...we liberate ourselves! Thanks for your support, Kingsley!
Perfect or not...it's the sentiment that counts! Thank you, my friend!

Magnificent verse, Richard. Self-deception is a really toxic element. Invoked often, and we don't see it. Invoked beyond that point, and everyone else can make out our fraud...and so the inner decay sets in. Again, brilliant verse, Richard.
So tragic that some don't see that fraud until the very end! Your support and encouragement continues to inspire me, my friend! Thanks so very much!
