If you can't tell the subject of this blog by the title or the picture please stop reading. Just kidding! I haven't really wrote a blog in a while, it has been taken over by poems, and that is the truth. And the reason is simple my poems are like quick blogs that I write in prose form, and my blogs are more of a longer form of writing and take a little bit longer. And the truth about my book is I'm still stuck writing the second chapter, so hopefully that chapter count will move up soon, because the truth is I'm scared to write it, and that is what is holding me back.
Its been said if you always tell the truth you never have to remember the story you have told in the first place. Chances are you won't tell the same story to every single person and sooner or later you will screw up and will be caught in a lie sooner or later. When you lie you hurt many people. and break something that requires a lot of work fixing, trust. Once you have lied to someone it is extremely hard to get anyone to trust you. I have been lied to so many times in my life by all kinds of people. I'm not naming names, because there is no point in doing so, but I still give them a little trust, in hope that the shred of trust I give them won't be betrayed in the end. But sadly it usually is, and being the kind of person I am I keep handing out chances. But there comes a time when trust is broken so many times. that is has no hope of being put back together, and for me that point is now. I'm telling you right now as a warning, my trust will lie within those who tell me the truth, and to those who lie all your second, third, fourth, twenty chances are going bye, bye! I'm tired of being hurt by lies, by others and myself.
The sad thing is I lie all the time, but not to others, but myself. I hand out advice left and right, and tell others they have the power to be their own heroes, and for others I believe it, but towards myself, truthfully I don't feel it. A hero never quits, but also a true hero is truly afraid of starting. The truth of the matter is that success, failure, and a lot of dedication are scaring me right now from fulfilling my dream and destiny of leaving the cheese. My best friend asked me how much longer do you plan on working at the Cheese, and I told them I don't know, but I want out! But that is half of a lie, because a part of me wants to stay there, for one reason, it's safe. Safe is stable, safe is comfortable. safe is following along. But safe is not success. safe is not victory and dedication, and safe is not my destiny. Our inner truth is known by only one person and its not God, it's you. Yes God has created us, but He has given us free will to find out our own inner truth, and become that. With and without his help whether some want to accept that or ignore the fact. The truth is we are born with a destiny, a purpose, but if you never look inside and see how strong, brave, dedicated, and determined you have to be achieve that destiny, you will never reach it.
Its a short blog post I'm sorry but there is two reasons why. First, the truth being told is not complicated. It's the right thing to do, and the only thing to become. Your true self! Why you were born, why you were put here, and why you meet the people you meet. All that is a part of your inner truth you have to find within yourself. Second is because I have a poem on fatherhood I will posting later this week in honor of two things, Father's Day and the reason I became a father in the first place, my son's birthday. Look for that one later this week. Third because I'm looking for people who won't let me give up on my book (if you are this person please let me know!). And fourth because its my blog. my thoughts, and my inner truth. :) And I lied in that first sentence of this paragraph saying there are only two reasons. because when I looked in while writing I noticed truthfully there were 4, well probably more. The inner truth is never black and white. its a vibrant array of colors, and it's up to you to show the world all your true colors.
