The Way Things Are

I know I don't look very old in the picture to the right, but believe me. I feel it. One of my annoying little idiosyncracies is to go around philophosising on every damn thing which I come across, and I have made some interesting discoveries.
Nearly everyone lies in the course of one day. The size of the lie varies, but whether it's a white lie or a huge full-blown cover-up, someone will use one. I belive that there are some people, however, who are so morally reliable and independent who will never tell a lie in their lives, whether for religious, social or personal reasons. These are people I admire well and truly.
The rest however, well, we're just doing what comes natural I'm afraid. But we need to clean up our act. Therefore, henceforth, courtesy of Are We There Yet? December 7th will now be known as

NO LIE DAY

Even if tell one teeny little lie once a day, like "Mom, these cookies are really good" as you retch miserably, or a lot of big lies everyday, for example "The situation in Iraq is under control", then i beseech you to stop your lies for just one twentyfour hour period. For all you non-insomniacs out there that means only roughly 12-14 hours of struggling not to lie in practice. Really none us should lie anyway, but it happens. Human nature is perhaps too hard to conquer, our DNA too clear cut in the way we are for us to be able to change what seems to be a normal mechanism of the human mind. But we can sure as hell bloody try! This site is devoted to morals in a big way, and I just hope some people might either learn something from it or recognise that what they've been doing is right.
