Oh Paul, what a great point! Why is it we often choose to keep to the lies in our life, instead of pursuing the path to the Truth? Fear, Fear, Fear. ‘If you want to control someone, all you have to do is to make them feel afraid’ (Devil & Miss Prym)
Interesting is that no lie can exist without a bit of true in it, else nobody believe the lie…So we always need truth.
There is no way to escape from the need for the truth.
A power which is bigger than us leading us to places
sometimes with a lot of destruction and only God knows why
if He will us enough power to go on…….
this is what I think today at this hour.
How far are you from me, O Fruit?
I’m hidden in your heart , O Flower.
How far are you from me, O Truth?
I’m hidden in your heart, O lies.
like it.
generates a nice picture :o)
I had to deal with lies recently.

Great lines, thanks.

So inspiring!…
Intuitively we all know the Truth; the problem is to let our logic recognize it and admit it. There is a Cypriot expression that I like so much [Swannie knows]: I ‘play’ the fool = Παίζω ‘πελλόν’!! It is like ‘whistling indifferently’! I ‘catch’ myself doing it when I do not feel ready to face things. YES AND NO, situation, dear Paulo Coelho. ;-]

Dear Paulo and Readers,
I come here, read and smile.
For every invitation there is, to hate and separate, I will find more ways to love and unite.
Love to All, Jane : ) xo
Yes!

The wind of change, by the Scorpions.
LOVE,
Thelma xxx
Thank you, Thelma!
I loved Scorpions when I was a teenager. I don´t know how many HOURS I listened to Still loving you. For some reason I almost forgot about them (I guess I thought I grew out of my Hard Rock period). I just discovered that I still love Scorpions. That makes me happ!.
There are also a lot of pleasant memories connected to Wind of change. And the version that you found is simply great.
With love and gratitude, GraDitude or whatever spelling is preferred,

This song moves my soul. Thank you Thelma, for posting. As soon as I read the Quote, this song popped into my mind.
Love to All, Jane : ) xo

In a time of lies, truth drawns. denial & politics give lies power.
In a time of lies, s/he who speaks the truth becomes the fool.
In a time of lies when truth can become a revolutionary act because ….
Namaste,
Since we live in a world of illusions, truth is eternally revolutionary.
Love to you
hey that’s a really good point you have made..
i find that in a weird sort of way the truth is always in our memories or past….. so even if we shape our life by living a lie…our past will always be true.
anyhoo here’s something to put u all in a lighter mood
There are places I remember
All my life though some have changed
Some forever not for better
Some have gone and some remain
All these places had their moments
With lovers and friends I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life I’ve loved them all
But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new
Though I know I’ll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I’ll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more
Though I know I’ll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I’ll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more
In my life I love you more
you cant beat the beatles
I totally agree.

Feelings never lie. But sometimes the world around us lies about our feelings. I’m constantly trying to sort out what is from the heart what is from the head Jessica!
With love, Daniel
I’ve had my own quiet revolution this week, and now this song by James Blunt is with me..
You’re beautiful. You’re beautiful.
You’re beautiful, it’s true.
There must be an angel with a smile on her face,
When she thought up that I should be with you.
But it’s time to face the truth,
I will never be with you.
Daniel you really have to see this one :

Very funny!

Olta
i cant stand that song…or him…
i’m listening to high and dry by radiohead
have a great night dude
it was nice to read Daniel…i feel the same for my X
Since you’ve posted this quotation Paulo, I’ve been thinking about the fact that even the opposite can happen too.
Love

Sometimes i wonder what is truth? What do we mean by telling the truth generally. The truth we want to hear? The truth we can understand? The truth that is convinient or the truth that we can relate to?
All of us think we want to know the truth, all of us think at some point to our lives that we know thw truth more or less, but is it so?
Maybe we all know fragments of the truth and we meed to assembly the pieces so we can actually see the real truth, but are we ever?
Plato said that we live in a world of shadows the real world is the world of ideas and only through that world we can approach the truth.
If that so for what truth are we speaking, for which truth we are battling?
Definately most of us choose truth rather than lies but the true question for me is if we can handle the truth. The most intriguing part is not to know the truth but how you deal with it later.
Are we prepared, are we willing to take our responsabilities?
Are we ready to face the truth?
This quote reminded me the last hours of Christ in gesthimani’s garden before Judas betrayed him and Romans arrested Him.
Christ prayed and asked from His father to take away from his lips the bitter cup. He knew the truth, he knew that things had to be done in a certain way but for a few seconds he didin’t want the truth he was scared but finaly he followed His mission and He was Christ the son of the God.
For my perception this the best way to deal with truth and i will always try to keep it on my mind after all Christ was the greatest revolutionists ever.
the truth at the moment is to be typing in my pyjamas and enjoying it nothing more nothing less.
What about “Tell me lies tell me sweet little lies…”? He he, sometimes we dont want to know truth.

This phrase only demonstrate how stupid we would be if adhere to the justice building upon our conception!
TRUTH–WE ALL KNOW WE LIE, SO TRUTH WORD IS SAME STRONG AS DEATH.
truth can of course be spoken by liars as well, but then we should keep in mind that truth spoken by liars has an evil motto, so believe not the truth of liars but the words from a person who you know believes in god , because god is where the truth is, and a person in union with the supreme will never speak a lie and if he does it will be for a true motive
The truth is not easy to say and to support when you are surrounded by more lies… and no one cares… Anyway.. I hope that the truth will survive and will set us FREE! xx GAbriela Romaria
Dear Gabriela,
Let them lie if that is the only thing they can do. Who said it is going to be easy, but it is sure that with no lies, even your conscience will live better and even you will be and feel better. It is difficult at the beginning but after telling lies it becomes the hard work.
Love <3
Olta
Yes, Paulo, and it seems like this has always been the way things are around this planet throughout history.
I prefer the way of the truth. !
Besides, that’s the only choice I got. !
And I thank God for that. !
DR
I agree with you Den. The truth is far better than lie.
You know the taste of these words : “the truth will set you free” can’t be more true. ;)
I just keep wandering if sometimes, lie can be good, but not for personal reason, but to save someone else ?
You said “that’s the only choice I got”, and I am telling you something which makes me laugh right now, but whenever I’ve seen my self in trouble and just a lie could have helped me out and I’ve decided to tell the truth, suddenly something have happened to save me from any catastrophes. hheheheh
I don’t expect that to happen all the time, I might become like those spoiled children then. heheheheheeh
Still I keep wondering on that, and I don’t know. And even if I had my answer at any moment I think I might have been afraid to listen to it.
So what do you think???
Love
Olta
Is there anything real anymore??? I mean for real…look around you, we live in a world full of uncertainties…what’s truth to me might not be to somebody else….the only truth I am holding in my heart is that I have no doubt of the existance of God as I have felt his presence when in need, that I must follow what he has guided me to follow….will this become someone else’s truth???…perhaps but only that person will know what her deepest thoughts, desires and pains her heart holds. Lately I’ve been finding myself in these very deep thoughts and my mind keeps on going and going and going, what a fantastic feeling it is as my life is again finding a meaning and a fight!!!!!!
with Joy

How true it is…
that “the truth can set you free”
as for revolution… here’s a tune helped lead mine ;o)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SKYWOwWAguk
Yes, it’s funny that truth has become a revolutionary act. Nobody seems to tell the truth these days. Most enjoy being in a state of self-denial.
I add a quote I love very much:
““Beauty is truth, truth beauty,”—that is all
Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know.”
from J.Keats “Ode on a Grecian Urn”.
Ja there is only beauty and only truth everywhere. Really no lies ha? All we need to know really, relly is the One remaining, reflecting beauty and truth! Thank for the quote.
I love this quote. Thank you Alexandra. Very deep! That’s all we need to know….all the rest is ‘rubbish’ !!!

Like the 23-year-old British woman on a three day break in Dubai who tried to report to the police that she had been raped, to then be subsequently arrested with her fiance, for having illegal sexual intercourse with each other.

Thank you Pandora. Even in western countries a victim of rape is usually a victim of mistrust; the ‘phallocratic’ societies.

Dear Jessica, I once met an old Jewish man, one that was often consulted even by the Prime Minister in my country (I found out). He was in his youth a disciple of Edgar Cayce (if I write the name right). He told me that the truth is at time not the best option. And then he showed me an example. Saying a truth utilizing instead of “I”, the term “I know of, I heard of, etc …” and put the truth. And even he concluded in saying … “and you know the friend I was talking to you about … well, it’s me”, depending on the situation. But I have that way of saying where I pour everything, and tend not to be careful. Well, for me, when I believe in something I believe in it. But I always say “As for today, that is where I stand”, or I add “I might be wrong, but for now that is my position. I am of a “sharing type” when I speak of what is for me the Creator’s wordings, wisedom, truth as I experience it and view it.
Love, Jojo.
Yes,Jojo, I totally agree with you since our minds always was changing that towards one relative thing, we can’t comment it absolutly right or not !that’s wise your behavior to my eyes!anyway nothing is absolutly right or wrong !
Perhaps it may be alternatively stated “In the process of lies, truth becomes a revolutionary act”. The times may belong to an imbalance of truth and lies, to a sepration of the act and the principle, but lies seem to exist only because of the definition given to them by the truth. I don’t think any times would belong to lies, as only one could live without the other.
Camouflage and dosage can help if there is digestion’s problem.
I think it i time for a revolution!
I agree! :)
A …. VELVET REVOLUTION??? ;-]

Or an Evolution? :)
So funny how thins go on for me and open before me. That awareness of this world’s ways of seeing and living life has become so present in me and so for me the opposite of the truth. One morning, not long ago, I said to God: “You know, if you decided to destroy all, I would understand. Go Ahead. I am ready. What enormous work has to be done to get out of those lies, fears implemented, manipulation hidden, etc …” I wondered how me in my environment could help bring back health to the Planet, make a difference with all that has to be done, how I could help those trapped, magnetically caught, etc … For a moment, I felt so much powerless against all that has been transmitted from so long ago.
I told myself (because as a Warrior I speak always to myself loud J) that if I chose to live I must assume my meaning of life, being a Warrior of Light, and start speaking with that awareness growing inside of me. On the same day, I was with a friend. She was telling me how she got depressed with that fear of having H1N1, how her throat hurts when she thinks of 2012, etc, etc … I listened. When we finished our errands, I decided to speak, no matter what would happen. Because I felt deeply sad for her, to see how the lies and fears were so present and destroying today her mother, her, and her children (her son of 6 is taking 3 kinds of pills, sees a psychiatrict, is diagnosted with severe anxiety!)
I turned to her and told her that I wished to talk to her from my heart, which I did, and most of all that I was deeply sad that as her mother did with her as a child, bring fear and lies in her life so much, she was letting fear and lies destroy her health and that that those were now being transferred to her children (her daughter being recluse at 11 and always scared to going away from her mother, the house). She looked at me and was no voice. She then asked questions, and we talked about fear, lies, reality, illusion, manipulation, money, power, control, the true beings that we are, etc …
Coming back home, I smiled and said to myself (again loud J), “Continue Johanne, be a light that is not afraid to shine in the darkness.”
And I will finish with my son Vincent who from primary to secondary was called “arrogant to Authorities, with a serious problem of rebelling” because he would even young denounce the manipulation, the abuse, the nonsense for him of what they were telling, the nonsense of an attitude, the non awareness of the adult, etc …”. That was a heck of a journey for him … and me. That made me work and I think him today for being so wise and not letting go his true being and profound intuitions. In the past, he expressed to me how he was afraid of being “brainwashed” … today, he stands solid. He understood that even if he follows certain rules, that does not mean he will have to let go from who he is. And you know, when something happens at school, if he is concerned and even not, the director calls for him to hear his point of view J I even received an e-mail from his professor asking Vincent to help him since he has the ability to show his classmates that such a functioning is nonsense. The classmates refer and listen to Vincent. I am so proud of the force that emanates from my son the Warrior Vincent !
Love, Jojo.
Dear Jojo with your stories you made me think about something really serious. I’ve always been thinking on that but never had a real information on the issue:
A psychologist, had said that the way we are educated on the 5 first years of our life are going to determinate our characters. They are very fundamental. I could see that on me. How the fears or the good and bad traits of my parents have left a big mark on my character. These last years I’ve been fighting against the bad part but still it isn’t easy you know. But at least now I have them as a kind of example to improve myself.
I can’t blame them anything. Nobody is perfect, either are they or me.
Fear is something horrible and i know that because it has been my “best friend” for a loooooooong long time. hehehhe
My parents say that I started to walk when I was 8months but I immediately felt down and got scared and so I started walking again when I turned 2 years.;P
What can I say, I was used to be surrounded by my people who could take always care of me. They didn’t even want to send me to the kindergarten…
I think that all that has happened because I was their first child. Thank God now I have two sisters! Not only because of the Love that we share but even because I think I’ve risked less on being a spoiled child. :PPP
I gave you me as example as I always do, but I could give you much more of them…
I am so proud of you Mama Jojo. Because mothers like you there are only a few and the children their raise become true warriors. I am sure of that. I’ve had the possibility to know at least one of them in my life.
I wish to be a mother like you one day, even though I am sure that it can be a very very hard job, even though it is the best way.
Love & Admiration
Olta
Thank you dear Jojo, you are such an amazing person. I’ve also tought my children to not been allowed to be brain washed!!!! The town where we live is so small and full of all kinds of prejudices that it’s very difficult to open up because people automatically reject anything different. I’ve come to accept my differences and I am happy with them.
With Joy
Monica
Ja! My father (RIP) told me tell the truth and if you dont know better be silent. The hard way is for the most times the right way.
I wonder if in a time just prior to revolutionary acts, the necessity for revolutionary acts, lies are used as a form of defense, because isn’t that where we learned them from as children, our defense? We lied in order to not get in trouble! I say this because one just has to look at climate change and how there are those who instead of looking for solutions would lie in order to maintain the status quo. It seems so simple, yet there are those who would muddy the water with lies, instead of looking for clearity through the lens of truth.
Speechless.
Truly speechless.
And grateful.
The truth is something is a delicate thing, it is good but sometimes one can’t be fully truthful as it might not be important enough to be truthful, as it can hurt someones feelings, like you said about telling someone that their dress is not very flattering, but then again where is it good to be truthful or where not, the person might want to know what looks good on them and be grateful, it all depends on the sender of the truth and the receiver of the truth. Some people are happy to hear the truth and react well, some get up in arms and a fight is started. It all depends on how one views it. It all has to do with what we know, how we view things and what we are used to, to how we recieve things. With love to all°❉♡❉°
With this I don’t mean that we should not tell the truth, we should and, it is time for a revolution over the whole world, not just one country here or there, for everywhere people should connect and speak up against the lies those in power deny in order to protect their own wealth and place in the spotlight.
°❉♡❉°
Muy cierto,soy tan criticada y condenada por algunos porque me caracterizo para hablar siempre con la verdad…mi lema es AUNQUE DUELA!
Dear all,
-Lies do not lie, truth do, In the times of any act lies lie hidden behind.
-Truth is not merely human judgement, it is an act of being open towards own self from any deeds.
-Those who lie can be seen, those who hide truth can be seen, later sometimes but those who play with truth are unseen.
-An act of being truthful is an act of being humble and honest towards mankind.
-Revolutionary or evolutionary, truth has passed million calendar of lies and stood up high, above the mountains and the sky.
God bless you all !
It is always a time of lies. So truth is always a revolutionary act.
;o)
from out of the darkness, light shines forth
hi paulo,
i never lie and i dont like who lies as simply like breathing. truth set you free and it wont haunt you. in islam, telling lie is a sin.
sajeer :)
oh sajeer, talking about islam :) the biggest revolution in islam is the inner revolution and the biggest “sin” must be to lie to our selfs! Ja? I think so :) And we can not lie to others if we not lie to ourself. :)
That’s also right!Bring it on!
Funny I should read this. This morning I have just watched a film called ‘Invention of Lying’ which is a new film about a time when lying was non existent so everyone always spoke the truth (and people accepted the truth very easily as they were so used to it!) It is a very interesting comedy which shows how life would be if we were all so honest with each other!!
Life today is an illusion as we have no real concept of what people actually think or what they are really doing. Especially governments. Thank you for this quote today Paulo.
The Truth will set us … Free; in reality and in metaphysical terms.
I hate lies and … words of .. consolation, but we must also be true to ourselves. In silence, we know where the truth lies but sometimes we are hiding behind our .. finger, for peace’s sake!! The ‘conventional’, ‘saving image’ lies.
LOVE,
Thelma xxx
Sometimes it is hard to know how to be a true rebel or revolutionary, nowadays especially. I believe to speak the truth is as good a way as any to do this and probably more potent than most. At the end of the day, I believe, it is the truth which humanity seeks most, it brings clarity and then a time for healing and new beginnings. It does involve risk but what is a revolutionary without bravery. Tell the truth, shame the devil.

Beautiful, Hildegarde. Thank you. Ernest Hemingway’s mind was so ‘sharp’.

“The truth will set you free.” John 8:31-32
Seems so actual topic… Is an act of bravery, saying thr truth and being honest, opening your heart and soul to others, even if you dont receive exactly the same back. Sometimes seems one will lose that way, but I think in the end will win, the sincere one.
But I do hope that after truth, there will be a time of reconciliation.
Yes.
yes.
I totally agree with you, Hope. The greatest LIE of all, is when we lie to OURSELVES!
“Nothing is so easy as to deceive oneself; for what we wish, we readily believe.”
Demosthenes – Greek Orator ( 384-322 BC )
Hi Hope,
Yeah.. You are right. Only the worst can lie to thyself.

Dear Olta
For example, when you started walking and you went down, what was the reaction of the ones surrounding you? What message came to mind? What was there that you took that left you scared of trying again for example? Who one interprets and decides is I think his or her responsibility, and so, yes, blaming the other or accusing the other to be the source of what is there today is not helpful. Now, Olta, “now” is the word. Becoming aware of the past or of what is there that influences or makes it hard today is okay. Become aware of the power that is within you and decide to refuse the past come back and forth to manipulate you and deviate you. As the warrior who keep guar near the fire, you need to keep guard on what you let come into your territory. Fear is an enemy. Put that enemy down, knowing that answers and all will come. But we must not forget that in order to put new wine, we need to get rid of the old. When the old wine leaves, there is like a void. Be aware of that void and be aware of who you are, put light, until the new wine comes and fills the void. Hope that you follow me … I am touched by your words about how I raise and am there for my children. You know, one day, I told myself, Johanne, you must trust them, trust their true selves. Be careful of the messages you give when you act, because even if you think you are acting out of love, you are acting out of fear, out of doubt. I decided that that was it. I decided to believe that my children have all they need, and that is what I always remind them … and myself. You know, being a mother is not that hard when you do not hold the “mandate” of taking in charge everything and most taking their destiny in charge.
Love, Jojo. And I admire you too, Olta.
The song was a hit of my …. times!
Heath Ledger! I had seen that film in T.V. but I did not realized it was Heath Ledger!! Now I know!!

Dear Jojo,
I wish I could remember how I felt at that time, but I was only 8 months old. I just know that that was only the beginning, and when I think about all of them right now, I just feel like laughing all the time.
Again I want to say thank you for being that courageous!
Thinking about you, it makes me think about a great person, but even about some parents who still suffer because of their children, because they always feared about them. Some others didn’t knew how to show to their children that life can be hard, by never punishing them and always pleasing them in everything. That was the best way they knew to love their children unfortunately, but I can assure you, that they are magnificent persons.
That made me think about God, about how he raise us. God gives us good and hard times for own own good.
Thank you Jojo! I learned something great in your lines today.
Love
Olta
Let’s wait, Swannie to meet in real[??] life; you may change your … mind! We are all human beings with our weaknesses and mistakes! The point is to be able to forgive other’s mistakes!

faith
ah, I like this: “velvet”
I think lies are as dreams, they might become truth. I know if someone tell a person: you are great, you are so skilled, you are …good features, the person might improve, feeling like he must fit the picture, or being stimulated by the faith someone has in him. Sure, only few cases, I mean lies might be really dangerous, all is the context.Sure, I dont wait all will agree. I dont like lies generally, but is bit as acting, and we love actors. I repeat, only in small amount, and harmless lies,”sweet little lies”. If we take all as real, than you might expect the lover bring the moon as he promised…or the eyes of the loved one are as stars …No poetry without lies.
???
What I am talking about ?
Love
Alexandra
Gee thanks Annie, so are you! :)
Can’t say it’s my favourite song either, but I broke up with my girlfriend this week. Last night I went to an “open mike” night at a bar to have some fun, and a woman started to sing this song just as I got a text from my ex. The universe works in mysterious ways! ;)
:-D thanks Olta!
I know what you mean Alexandra. I know that very well!
It can really happen. It has worked on me sometimes. I do remember some cases when I was a child and, there was someone who sometime, just for encouraging me used to tell me : “Oh! You did this? It is excellent!”
I couldn’t tell that they were telling a nice lie to me but whenever I used to ask if they were sure, they used to answer : “Of course I am sure, since it was you who made it.”
Those words have encouraged me many times. It was like I needed to hear all that from tie to time. They really helped me.
Well after a long time I knew about the lies. To be honest I got hurt a little but still as for me I am grateful that they told me those little lies.
And I know very well how good it may work in some other occasions too…But…
“O Sweet Lie! To lie or to not lie? This is the question.” hehehehehehehe

Can you put this word in a sentence Please? ;PPP :DD

Dear Thelma,
Thank you, yes. Mistakes are part of living and learning about the price of everything in life. I love what you had to say.
Wishing everyone a day of wonder, Love to All, Jane : ) xo
Thought I know I’ll never lose affection for people and things went by , I ‘ ll have to love the present more since I have to live in the present ! For as I’m crying for the bygone the present ‘ d become the bygone again then I’ d never be able to live really! But how much I want to go before to be with the people I’ve ever loved together once more , how much I feel painful that I can’t go before!each time think of that I feel my heart alike being whipped! I just can’t go before, so I have to love the present more and more and more……
Really thanks of this poet! I like it so much! It touch my deep heart as same as a long time ago there have ever one man who touched my deep heart althought I never can see him any more! Painful but have to move on!can’t lose the present any more!
The raindrop whispered to the jasmine, ” keep me in your heart for ever.”
The jasmine sighed,”Alas”,and dropped to the ground!
the truth was always present with the lie: the body language … the non-logic
was actually funny when thinking back now :o)
Dear Monica
I will take the word “amazing”, for I need to give me that nourishment. Yes, I am doing my best and most of all being able to see my errors and recuperate and learn from them and have the humility and honesty to come back in relation and tell. I always had that in me to teach my kids to develop their power to see the truth in relation to what others did to them or what they did to others in relation, to be aware of a decision, an action, a word, to be able to see that in a hurt that they receive, a judgment, there was hurt living in the other person, judgment also, etc … I listened to their hurt, their tears, gave importance to their feelings but always sat and together try to be conscious of the forces involved so not to nourish the dark but the light … and I let them free to make errors, to recuperate, to evaluate what I taught them … for they have their own education to follow, an education that does not come from the structures in place but from the Universe … Yes, it demands a lot to honour, respect and love who we are, our difference … but we are not different … we are just more aware than the others.
Love, Jojo.

do we have here an oracle from cyprus?
did it move from delphi?
Apart from the intriguing geomancy, the sites which form Temple’s eastern and western ‘chains’ of omphaloses are often linked with sacred mountains:
On the west the sites, separated by one degree of latitude, are: Dodona (Mount Tomaros); Delphi (Mount Parnasus); Delos (Mount Cynthus); the next site is doubtful and may be Thera which was destroyed in a major volcanic eruption; the next omphalos is Thenae near Knossos on Crete; then a site on the south coast of Cyprus – perhaps the Temple to Aphrodite at Paphos; a site near Lake Tritonis in Libya/Tunisia; then El Marj, Lybia; and finally Behdet itself. ….[Found in Google!!]
Dear Katie,
It has not move; it has always been in Cyprus too!!;-]
