Nothing Rings True?
It seems to upset people when
I admit that I never trust anyone,
ever. I get looks the run from
you poor, poor soul to isn’t trust
the centerpiece of something? If
not everything? If I am to be pitied,
it’s not for my lack of trust. Everybody
lies. So what? Nothing says that cannot
be true and okay. Nor would it keep me or
anyone else from roles like Hopeless Romantic.
So what. People lie. A lot. That is a given. And
skepticism is fine once the notion of lying becomes
neutral. What becomes much more interesting to me is
deducing the subject on which a person opts to prevaricate.
