Hate and Lies... Lies and Hate.. truly the source of so much pain in the world

Lies. are just words.. words can't hurt you.. yadda yadda yadda.. were we all not raised on that point of view?.. well it is WRONG.. Lying may be the worst thing in the world.. why.. because if people are lied to, and they make decisions on those lies , innocent people can be destroyed, killed, countries brought to its knees on just words.. WORDS MATTER AND LIES HAVE TO BE CALLED OUT..

Lies are many times the source of hatred. Hatred will destroy the hated and in the end just as many times it destroys the hater. Lies .. half truths.. many times are the basis of hatred.

People have to be willing to stand up to lies and not walk away from them shaking their heads thinking they are just words..

Coming from every direction now. I wonder what the average of how many lies human beings are exposed to in a normal day. I bet it’s a staggering number.
