every second dripping off my fingertips

Hello sick people and their loved ones. Unfortunately, Dr House isn't in right now, but you have one of his biggest fans here (ok maybe not as big as some people *glares at Naomi*, but my ego is big enough to fill this blog space). Actually, that last sentence deserves to be outside the bracket.

Some people have their ego so big it fills an entire networking website.

I've been heavily critical of hypocrisy in the past, but I also understand that hypocrisy governs the world, and people. So do lies, deceit and money. Surely this is somewhat cynical but cynicism has enabled me to look deeper, and see what people really are, understand how people think, and why they do what they do. Hypocrisy prevails because the lie is always better than the truth. We know that people would rather hear the lie because it makes us look better. It makes us something we're not, and people like to see that. They like to see the good stuff. Eventually, they will believe the admirable, affable, virtuous people that we pretend to be.

Exactly the reason why I'm cynical, so that I can see past that pitiful mask people wear. The mask that hides the wrong we do, the things we are guilty for. And when people see past that mask, that lie, then what do we do? We lie some more, so that it seems as though we're looking for absolution. We pretend (again) that we're going to change, become a better person, do good deeds, donate to charity. For what? To feed our selfish ways, gratify our egotistical needs. It supposedly takes the guilt away from the 'evil' we've done, and yet we knowingly do it again, because beneath the pretty mask is the same old ugly, pathetic excuse for a person.

Everything good becomes tainted with lies, and I feel quite sorry for the group of people who indulge your selfish whim. Talk is cheap. Yours is. It really is.

There is sight in blindness though. I just hope people choose to see the right behind the wrong, the truth behind the lie.
