Secret truth

 

We can not help but to communicate in some way. There are those who must tell their stories, even to strangers. The urge to tell. The energy and impulse become so great; they just blurt it out like water falling to fill the space. Silence.

There are those, few but enough that throw out stories, mis trust, deception to retrain a dark part of themselves. A part which pains or frightens. A secrete part closely guarded. Invulnerable.

Perhaps shared with only one other soul. The stuff of identity and being.

The funny thing is that thrown out lies are a magical type of mirror to the secrete truth.

Some lies are obviously the opposite, particularly when spoken under stress.

But when the lie is spoken with planning. The words show a trace, a faint echo of the real truth. The truth sometimes so clear that on confrontation is denied and then pushed deeper.

Lies are an important part of our world. We trade in lies. It slows us the truth. That is our work.
