How do we tell truth from lies
When it is spoken with such honeyed sighs?

    Great truth to your couplet. Love it! Here’s a thought…
    Only the truth exhausts a lie in time… time is the benefactor, but will we have the time to live past, and through, the duration of time the lie exists.

    I suppose we need the truth as without it we are belittled.

    How stupid are we to actually believe everything we hear … I have been stupid all my life … people have always said to me ’’you’re soooo gullable’’ as if it were a crime … I DON’T LIE and it never occurs to me that other people do it!! You’d think by the time I got to my venerable age I would have learned?????

    Time!!! yes! Don’t have quite so much time as I used to and you know what they say … ’’there’s no fool like an old fool’‘

    They say ‘time heals all wounds’ too, but what ‘they don’t know,’ Dear Lady, is how you feel from the inside unless it is expressed. I will not bottle up my emotive spirit to newness in expression… no one should. There’s no time like the present… let’s get on with it.

    Truth is so important in live. only way to find out is ask God to remove the mask of the liers.
    he will unveil and reviel the truth
