When reality bites...it doesn't let go.

Never use denial as a key to existence. Day in and day out you can deny that you’re tired, you can deny that you’re scared, you can deny how badly you want more out of life, you can even deny that you’re in denial…one day reality will sneak up and bite you in the butt.
As humans we can only see what we want to see, and believe what we want to believe. And sometimes it works; sometimes not so much. People lie to themselves so much that, after a while, the lies start to seem like the truth. And eventually they deny so much, that they are unable to recognize the truth, even when it is right in front of their face…breathing down their neck.

When it comes to be…reality that is, and it will; the dam bursts, all you can do is swim. You can only lie to yourself for so long until you realize that you are tired, you are scared, you do want more and all this time, denying it hasn’t changed the truth. You are forced to put aside your denial and face the world head-on because; denial - it’s not just a river in Egypt. It is more massive than any ocean.

I have to wonder, how do some people keep from drowning in it?

Any Questions?
