Small lies

Lying is a strange phenomenon wherein we want to prove something which doesn't really has any standing when given a chance to prove itself confronted with the truth. Yet, there are lies under which we have to take shelter as the truth which the lies tries to hide can break a whole life who grew on the basis of the lie they believe.

I had a personal experience wherein fact checking certain lies can break relationship. I had a crush on a girl in my school days and expressed it to her via a social media platform. And she began sharing memes which were completely false and I as usual began fact checking her in those days. And the result was she stopped sharing them with me. I couldn't understand her behavior but when I recall the incident I could realize she wanted me to take part in her lie as a prerequisite to further the relationship which unfortunately I could not figure out. 

Lying is a skill which is like handling the double edged sword and the basic character of surviving a lie is that it doesn't get caught. But it is quite relative as lie requires a believer to gain traction. A lie becomes ineffective before two people, one who lies more than the one who he is being lied to and lie becomes ineffective before the one who transcends the lie with his truth.

A lie should be like a magic show which we resort to in order to expand our imagination limits despite knowing that it is a trick and that doesn't disturb the character of greater truth which we all have to depend upon when our basic belief system is challenged upon.
