Ah, glad you asked! Liars! You had a great post about lying that I wrote a ton on and then chrome crashed >.< so I'll try again: Liars. You do not have more of a right to power than I do. You do not have the right to withhold information, or spread false information, from whom it concerns. Honesty can hurt, it can be brutal, but I think it's a waste of a life if we're sheltered from it. We should know the harsh truths, when we're at a young age we might not have to be told about things like genocide and racism, but we should be given the tools and resources to properly, objectively understand them when we discover them. I broke up with my last girlfriend (I'm 15, take 'girlfriend' with a grain of salt) of 2 years because we were unable to communicate. She held things back from people, reserved them because she was afraid of their judgement, and for the longest time I struggled to show her that I was trustable-- it didn't work. So when I found out she had cheated on me, and broken my trust, I left. I wasn't mad because she cheated on me. I was mad because she didn't tell me when she did; it's my responsibility in a relationship to make her happy, and if that means being happy with someone else, then so be it. I'd rather know that I'm not able to satisfy her or whatever, and let her go with someone else, that continue to try to be there for her always when everything I do is being taken for granted. This is selfish. I know. but there's an objective reasoning to this because the valuable, limited time that we sacrifice for other people are just that-- limited. This is an extreme, but I think it applies to even the whitest of lies. So I have no respect for liars. Not to say i haven't lied. I don't have much respect for myself :D
