We are told ignorance is bliss - what you don't know won't hurt you. Then again if you had already eaten from the forbidden fruit of knowledge then you must learn about life -through knowing.
Knowing has four parts -
The ugly lie.
The beautiful lie.
The ugly truth.
The beautiful truth.
The ugly lie is Evil . It is deliberate , made to HURT , to cause PAIN. However it is a LIE.
When you are told you can't succeed because you are short or because of your gender or race that
is all part of the ugly lie. It is meant to keep you down. It is meant to control you to subvert you.
Recognize it do not accept it - ignore it or if its persistent face it and rebuke it.
The beautiful lie - is often disguised . Like a wolf in sheeps clothing. Often a sales tactic used to
cheat you. It may be flattering when actually its intent is to deceive you. Used often for control and often by narcissist. It can be with accompanied by a smile.
A commercial aspect of this is the Marlboro man , conning you into smoking cigarettes . Or the model that sells beauty product that sometimes destroy you skin over time. Recognize that you are being used at times for no purpose other than to steal a piece of your own happiness.
The ugly truth is something that can also hurt you. Because of your pride or ego it can hurt. Someone perhaps makes fun of your baldness. Yes - we can't deny it is truth - some of us are bald. Why let it cause us pain. We are not all the same. Some are poor through their own choice or by circumstance. It does not have anything to do with happiness . Many persons you may consider wealthy are miserable.
So really , examine your motives. The ugly truth can tear away at you . Accept who you are and learn the art of contentment.
The Beautiful Truth , learn to receive blessings and be thankful for them. You are worthy don't let circumstance or persons tell you otherwise. You are worthy because of redemption , you are a child of God. Not because of anything you did , by Grace. Free from guilt and shame, move ahead in you spiritual journey - rise !
Peace,
Earl
