tell the truth...or at least don't lie!

[basquebromance]

With regards to telling if you are speaking authentically:

Listen to yourself talk, as if a stranger was talking. Try not to identify too much with what you are saying. Then, observe. See if what you are saying makes you feel stronger, physically, or weaker. If it makes you feel weaker, stop saying it. Try to reformulate your speech until you can feel the ground under your feet solidifying. Then practice only saying things that make you strong.

Stop trying to use your speech to get what you want. You don’t necessarily know what you want. Instead, try to articulate what you believe to be true as carefully as possible. Then, accept the outcome. Assume that your truth, as lived and spoken, will produce the best possible outcome.

It’s an act of faith. But so is every other way of being.

SO DON'T ASK ME, 'BOUT MY BUSINESS, AND I WON'T TELL YOU NO LIES!

People know when they are lying....and they know when they are being lied to...whether or not they care either way is the question....if its the right lie some will slurp it right up....like when Joe opens his pie hole....

Pambunctious above is lying but you will have to ask him why.

Trump is a Pathological liar
Pathological liars tell compulsive lies without a clear motive. This type of lying is different than nonpathological lying, where the lie is often beneficial in some way.

Lies often lead to some benefit. For example, a person may lie to avoid social embarrassment. While some people lie more frequently than others, it is not typically a sign of a mental health condition.

Pathological lying is different. It may be a sign of an underlying mental health condition, such as a personality disorder.
