5 and 6 drive me nuts.
Add:
-there’s someone out there for you
-Read the holy book and find the answers to your life
-be patient you will get through this
“I love you”
“I/we/they/people care”
“don’t worry, there is nothing wrong/going to happen/to worry about”
“you can trust *insert whatever*”
“I love you” tops the list. I don’t believe it already. I laugh when I hear this lie. Wow I’m an adult now.
oh and pretty much everything involving god, be it protection, “rewards”, blessing/approvals, fairness/justice/good-evil/righteous, listening, praying solving/action/”miracles”, repentance/absolution “forgiving”
yes Snorlax, “you can trust me” is usually followed by ‘inserting whatever’.
These are some of the biggest lies told by the human race. Some others may include,
– “Life is wonderful”
– “Struggling makes you a stronger person”
– “Suicide is the easy way out”
Oh yes, that fucking “hardships give you character” shit, or whatever the exact wording is.
Yeah I’m so tired of hearing that shit from everyone.
They say: “There’s a reason why you go through this”
I f’in hate these people and kill them right that moment
Yes, I HATE “there’s a reason for everything” crap. Really? So Gawd/the universe/fate whatever you call it- WANTS millions of people and innocent children to starve to death? To live a life of abject poverty? There’s a “reason” why the wealthy elite get to live good cushy lives while the rest of us struggle? I just don’t believe that.
Or when a women gets raped. “Everything happens for a reason.” Really? She was meant to be raped? For what sick purpose?
I don’t need no “character.” I’d rather not have a hard fucking life.
Bingo, I don’t give a flying shit about having some “strong character” if it means I have to spend my whole damn life suffering. I’d rather just be living peacefully.
What lies have I been told? Pretty much everything I’ve ever been told, heard, seen, or read my entire life. We humans (and that includes all of us here on this forum) live our entire lives completely based around artificial judgment values and fabricated worldviews.
Yup, everyone.
Exactly
-God has a plan and a purpose for your life
-You are going through this struggle so you can help someone else
-It all works out for good in the end
-You’re being selfish
-Your writing is important
-Love finds a way
-There is help
-Medication can help
-Talking can help
-You are important to me
-I’ll take care of you
-You’ll never have to worry
-There’s nothing to be afraid of
-You’ll find your way
-I’m here for you
-Death is the coward’s way
and the most heinous of all:
-THERE’S ALWAYS HOPE!
Yes all of the above.
Also- “I’m here for you”- biggest load of crock ever from people.
The fortune from the cookie I just ate said: Keep on keeping on!
LOL!!
Ah, they should have “misfortune cookies”
Like black fortune cookies that spell doom and gloom, or reality.
It was a chocolate fortune cookie, at least.
Misfortune cookies. Love it.
So now that you believe you’ve been fed falsehoods, is it going to make you feel better to dwell on it? Or would you rather take the knowledge you’ve gained from your experiences and adapt and adjust your perceptions in the future?
Sometimes lowering your expectations and making realistic, achievable goals can make you feel much better.
Dwell on it. O_o
Because the only way out is suicide, and even then they’ve taken the means away from us. At least the peaceful, painless, and guaranteed to work ways.
-“I’m okay, I promise”
-“I’m fine”
-“You will never lose me”
-“we will last forever”
-“you are the only one I love”
-“you are my everything”
But you CAN be anything you want. As long as you have the straight As from your teens up to your adulthood in every subject you’ve participated in.
