They lie because it is just simply easier.

It is easier than having to answer a question that might follow a truthful response.

It is easier to say what they think you want to hear.

It is easier to avoid the mistakes.

It is easier to pretend the problem does not exist.

It keep you from knowing anything about them or what they are really thinking or doing.

OMG I could go on and on.

Think about a reason you might lie or have lied to someone and apply those reasons.

Sometimes, it is simply the first thing that pops into their head.

I just ask myself anymore, why not? Instead of why.



"Acceptance doesn't mean resignation. It means understanding that something is what it is and there's got to be a way through it."--Michael J. Fox
