A world of lies.

On average, most people will lie about six times in the very first conversation they have with another person.

This world is constantly trying to cover up their mistakes and flaws.

We tell lies in the face of failure to try and make it look like we are facing success instead.


But why?


As humans, we judge people constantly.

Whether we mean it or not, or know the person.

We are, undoubtedly, a flawed race.

But instead of fixing the problem, we make it worse by lying to ourselves and others.

When we see someone else's success, we don't want to look lazy, or be in their shadows, so we try to focus the spotlight on us to make our shadow at least look bigger then theirs.
