Many times we are seeking for the truth. We are seeking for the truth about life, about our friends, partners, family and even the truth about ourselves. Finally, when the truth is revealed, we are sometimes or even many times hurt to know it.
Seeking for something for a very long time, struggling to reveal the secrets, the missing parts, we put a great effort in finding the truth and when we finally find it, we are hurt.
So, what do we do? We close our eyes once again. We wish to return to a point, before knowing the truth and we wish to rather live in a life with pink glasses and with our masks on. We start to pretend again that everything is fine, we start to pretend that the truth doesn’t exist and we choose to live in a lie.
We start to comfort ourselves that this is for the best and that we are doing this maybe for a greater good. Maybe the wife whose husband is beating her will tell herself that she deserved it or that she needs to stay in such relationship because of the kids. She will close her eyes and start believing in an illusion. She will be probably miserable, but she will refuse to see the truth once again.
No matter, for which reason we close our eyes in front of the truth, we are not doing any good for anyone. We people are really strange creatures of this nature. We have all the power of the free will, we have the power to change almost everything, but yet we choose many times to live in a lie and in believing that nothing can be changed.
