You can call it a story; you can call it a fib; you can call
it a little white lie but a lie is a lie is a lie! There is no such thing as a
little lie or a big lie; a lie is a lie is a lie! There is no difference in an
unintentional lie or an intentional lie; a lie is a lie is a lie! There are lies of fabrication, lies of
exaggeration lies of deception, plagiarism, broken promises, failure to keep ones
commitments, bold-faced lies, and compulsive lies. No matter what you might want to call it, a
lie is a lie is a lie.
Let me just define what a lie is. A lie is to state or speak an untruth; to
express what is false or to convey a false impression with intent to deceive.
In short, a lie is when one is dishonest. A lie is a false statement.
Ghanaians have this saying, “I am coming”. I have yet to
figure out why they use it or why they do not see it as a lie when they know
they are not coming back. Perhaps they think that by saying, “I’m coming” that
they are covered when you see them a month or so later. Yet, they have told a bold-faced lie! Whether one intended to return in a timely
manner and did not, it is still a lie, without intent, to deceive another. However, if they do not return in a timely
manner; it is still a lie. Pick up the phone!
Another example of lying is when one says, I am on my way
now, knowing full well that they have not walked out of the door yet.
That is a lie. There are other outright lies used to teach our children
how to lie. For instance the Easter Bunny,
Santa Clause, the tooth fairy, etc.
Psychologist call those people who lie almost all of the
time, compulsive or psychopathic liars who tell lies when they don’t have to
and more than likely others know that they’re lying.
There is never a good reason to lie. Some people lie to keep from hurting another’s
feelings. Some lie to avoid punishment.
Others lie because they want to make themselves out to be more than what they
are or into someone they are not. People
lie because they want something they know they do not deserve.
Liars keep lying because each repeated lie produces another lie that desensitizes their brains emotional center thereby diminishing ones emotional stability.

People lie when they
are trying to control a situation; to exert influence towards getting what they
want from another. Truth is an inconvenience
to a liar because it does not conform to their narrative. People lie because they want admiration; they
want to impress someone they admire; seeing the qualities they desire within
that individual that they want to impress upon them that they have those admirable qualities.
Gossiping and lying goes hand in hand. You can bet that every gossiper is a liar. The gossiper lies
to make them self appear to be more than the one they are gossiping about. They think that if they put the other person
down that it makes them look bigger, smarter, more important, etc.
In Ghana, they have audacity to call gossip a part of their "caring" culture. The men are the worse. Yet, they
will be sitting up in a church on Sunday lying to themselves, lying to others and lying to the Most High just as they
have lied all week long as if G-D don’t know they are lying gossips who have
broken every commandment in the book.
You knew that you could not fix that computer;
all you want is the money, knowing you’re lying about having the skills but will
still collect the money. You are a deceiving, conning, thieving liar!
You see a non
Ghanaian and the taxi fare just went up. You’re a lying, conning, conniving, deceiving,
dishonest person. You too vendor!
Therefore, if you Ghanaians are wondering why you are not
seeing any advancements, growth, or improvements stop
lying! Wondering why you are still in that wilderness experience unable to cross over into your Promised Land of peace, prosperity wealth and riches? Stop gossiping! At least make an
honest attempt to try to keep the 10-Commandments if nothing else. Catch the Vision!
Hotep Light One Love!
