Chapter 10:- "I once said 99 true words..."
"I once said 99 true words, no one believed me. I once said a single lie, everyone believed me. From then on, I realized that we are living a life full of lies."
This is a quote from one of the Taiwanese dramas I just fell in love with. It matches me somewhat....or not. Wouldn't it be just wrong to tell the truth and no one believe you? It's happened to me a lot. Wouldn't it be just as wrong to lie and they believe you? It's happened to me a lot. There was a time where I tried to tell what happened but the situation would always end with tears in my eyes. So I started to tell "my stories". The tears stopped but it still hurt. I've come to the point where I just don't say anything. I still have the urge to say what I need to say or want to say but I just myself and enter into my distractions, be it music, Asian dramas, or writing/reading. They stop the gnawing attention that is inside of me.
I just recently found a song by an artist that I like, Kerli. "Mama, You're a Liar". Kind of fits me, huh? I can tell you now, my mom spins a many of "stories". She's one of the reasons that I'm not a trust-giving person. People say we are alike and I HATE hearing that. "You look just like your mama", "You remind me so much of your mama", "You are your mother's child" AHHH!
Yes, I have mother issues and she's the cause of the rest of my problems....I don't mean to rant. It's just...to get to my problems I have to get past hers and there is no way to do that.
To change that quote from the beginning, "I once said 99 true words, only I believed myself. I said one "story" and my life was my own. From then on, I realized that we are living a life full of "stories" and it's better that way."
