I have seen the crop circle you're referring, too. And that was interesting, essentially the Trojan Horse message, right?

Lying is interesting. Science has measured and made bold statements that everybody lies. I don't think it's every body. I have evidence of that, but more precisely- it's the people who can't lie that end up getting labels of mental health problems.

I think we all have met people who don't lie. We question their discernment. They share everything. They never meet strangers. Consequently, these folks are highly likely to be taken advantage of! They are loving, giving, and it doesn't take too many questions for other humans to determine their vulnerabilities. And we're all on this continuum, of nuanced information management. The greater the ability to manipulate information sets, generally the greater ability to navigate successfully within this economic structure- because it doesn't want truth, it wants what it wants.

I lie, but I am not good at it. I see people advancing by manipulating answer sets, but mostly, I have a general lack of discernment when it comes to speaking my mind that is not rewarded.

And don't we teach kids to lie? "We're going to grandmother's house, and I don't want anyone talking about what happened yesterday." Or, "Don't be telling your friends that. That's private stuff..." Both of those could be innocuous, but generational abuse is generationally perpetuated because we manage information sets to hide our darkness. Telling might lead to blowing up the family and resulting in intervention. We try to protect the families we are born into. That's love, that's fear, that's so complicated...

Thank you for sharing and provoking me to further reflection.
