Between lies and truths

He's bad, you know he is
It's wrong, you know you shouldn't be doing it
But he's a friend
And he's flirting too much, what should you do?


How can one differentiate between lies and truths sometimes? You have person A telling you another story that person B told, but person B told you a different story. Maybe person B ain't that good after all. Maybe he just wants you that's why he lied to you thinking you don't know the truth behind it.

Lies and truths, they are rather confusing. Some think that lying for good reasons doesn't harm. Some lie because they want something or are escaping something. Either way, lies suck. They sometimes hurt more than the truth itself. Would you want someone to lie to you saying that your, lets say, boyfriend is still alive and is somewhere far when he's actually dead? What I mean is, the truth will always be revealed. Nobody can hide something forever. They can never leave pass the guilt. In the end, the truth is still the best answer.

Our Evil Twin

Sometimes I wonder, is the really an evil side of us in within? If yes, will we one day lose control and accidentally allow the evil us to unleash itself? What will happen then?

This question has been on my mind for some time and after watching a Singaporean drama entitled 'Beyond', I'm certain that each of us has a hidden side which sometimes we don't even realize. It can be gruesome, fearful and pure evil. Or can one really be 100% pure and holy? I'm sure that every one of us has sinned and did something which we regret. The devil is within us; if we choose to unleash it, only will it take over. We're constantly at war with ourself because we are our own worst enemy. Every single thought is from our mind; the voices that we hear, the decision that we make.

Hence, it is important that we suppress our evil self and have faith in God. Personally, I think that jealousy, lust, desires for certain things, hatred and all negative feelings and thoughts are what create the evil twin. They don't only hurt others, they destroy ourself. For example, being angry at someone requires a huge amount of energy. So why waste your energy on hating someone when you could conserve it for better use? For us to do that, we have to learn how to forgive. It is hard, I don't deny that but we can learn. It's not necessary that one has to forget, but it's always the best option to forgive.

I'm not perfect myself; I have flaws and yes I have anger, jealousy and sometimes lust as well. But I'm willing to control all these negative energy just so I'm able to lock my inner monster.
