"Yes. It's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true. The bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies... and everyone lives happily ever after."
I've had this on my mind for a while, now, but only feel like typing it now my head is full of cold and I feel a little trashy. I feel much better now than I did when I thought of this originally, but I think other people may get some milage out of too, so:
Life can sometimes suck. It really can. It doesn't matter what your situation is, from rich in Richmond to poor in Paris, occasionally, life will get on top of you and make you want to hide, under your duvet-equivalent, wherever you are.
Before this week, I was getting this feeling regularly. Work was difficult, and personal relationships were getting me down. What I really needed, I decided, was someone to lie to me and tell me the world is in fact a better place than it feels like, that people can be nice, that things go right as much as they go wrong. It would be better if it was true, I grant you, but some days the lie will help much more than the truth ever will.
So.
This topic is for anyone to get anything off their chest that they need lying to about if it would help them feel better. For your posts, you can either be Lied to or Liar. The truth is not unwelcome if it might help, but this isn't about proof; it's about pure, naked lying and distraction therapy.
So: Lithers, if you would be so kind: Lie to me. Lie to anyone who asks for it. Lie to yourself if you feel like it.
Because the world is a better place than all the available evidence would point to, surely? |
