Paradox -----
  I want to be broken to tenderness, till the argument is finally gone.
I want to FEEL the Love of ACCEPTANCE. Don't care if it takes all life long.
  Thank You Julie for your honesty.

                               Feeling Tender,

ThankYOU for the kind words.
Honesty is such a funny thing...funny experince for me. I lived my whole life as a lie. I think from the time I began talking, I was lying. I would lie about what I had for breakfast. I would lie not just to cover my @ss or to make me look better...I would lie just because it became a way of life for me.
When this "rigorous honesty" stuff began....I wasnt entirely sure you people knew what you were talking about. I mean...seriously.....not just 80% honest??!! Rigorous honesty?? Ha....was I even capable?
Strange thing....the more I have practiced honesty and transparency with people, the more they seem to accept me and love me.
Funny to figure out that I had it wrong all these years.smile

lol Julie about lying about breakfast. TOTAL identification!

I was telling my sponsor recently, that I used even to lie about seeing movies

Person: Have you seen X?
Me: Yes...what did you think of it?
Person: It was great! Did you like the part?
Me: Oh yeah, man...

Just lying for the sake of lying!

I mean WTF?
