It's been a while, so it's time to make a topic.
What "wouldn't" you rather
-
Know the uncomfortable truth of the world

Believe a comforting lie
Tell us why you don't prefer that

Know the truth of the world. Hint: it's not even uncomfortable. :yum: :joy:
Alright it is a bit uncomfortable, but also really really amazing.
-
@Mr-Ghost Because I like knowing and understanding things.

Well, a lie is bad and believing a comforting lie is worse. I usually don’t trust what anyone says unless I hear it from 5 other people but, if I did believe a comforting lie, it would just cause more pain than a regular lie. Knowing the uncomfortable truth of the world...well, I haven’t experienced it yet 😂

@Mr-Ghost What is the uncomfortable truth of the world? Travelling to London on a peaktime train, yr body fused with all the hipster students, and all the feckless office workers, and all the rich old people who've been retired since their thirties, and then after a time, you come to realize that all these C's are actually just disparate aspects of your own cursed soul? Eh?

@Mr-Ghost - I already know enough uncomfortable truths of the world and I’m sure there’s soooo much more. The world can be a cruel and ugly place inter dispersed with occasional kindness and beauty. I wouldn’t want to believe a comforting lie. I want the truth so I can act as needed and appropriately for the situation. Some people like The Land of Denial but I do not. I want the truth.

that sounds uncomfortable aye.
But dont look at the old forever retired rich people like they have it better. if they really retired at 30 they spent 30 years of their life in a completely meaningless fashion. Those might be the poorest souls you see on your trip to london...

@petrapark3r You're right as ever, PP. The next time I see one, I'll give em a big hug and offer them a sip of my Special Brew.

The saddest part of their truth is that they propably don't even know how wretched they are... Poor fellas

@Mr-Ghost the question should be, "do you believe in god or not?"
