I am not a liar.
How could I lie when there have been no real questions?
And I'm not a fucking mind reader.
The words I spoke in honesty are still just as valid as the day I said them.
Yet I am drowning in confusion...
This is all in my head, isn't it? Tell me....
Paths cannot be chosen nor destinies fulfilled on such vagaries.
So....tell me.....one way or the other....
...and watch the weather change....

First, for yourself, define liar.
For me, lies & truth depend on one's viewpoint on the object. Truth is relative and is a personal construct. (Hmm, define personal).
The past honesty is in the past. It affects you but is no longer here for you.
Yep, most of what we experience is in our head. Even what we experience through our senses has been filtered by mind. Wanting for the real reality is a mental construct, as it's all based on an endless string of previous conditions. All we have, all we can be, is what is appearing now.
I got thinking about this a bit more after posting. Yes, most things are in our head. The really funny thing is that there is no boundary between us and our environment. So even the things in our head are intrinsically entwined with our experience of the present moment. So no inside and no outside found. If there's no boundary here then aren't we just momentary and fleeting expressions of awareness.
Now what is awareness again?
I have to apologize. Everything I say is self-important.
Thank you to Wyvern and Kalsang for your comments.
Kalsang...
I like your comments. Opinions and comments are always subjective, so how can they be anything other than of importance to self? That is why I feel crazy sometimes. I realize that my worldview is entirely derived from a personal and very subjective stance, and while I see that everything is 'in my head', I yearn for something 'real'...something that can be substantiated externally and by someone else's view...and that is crazy in itself, I suppose. lol
Your responses are very buddhist, and sometimes you help remind me of certain key things. Please don't apologize. I know you always have good intentions. :-D
Thank you for being here! Thank you for being understanding! It helps a lot. I tend to go to intellectualization when ideas are presented and it helps get to the empty point but sometimes I get the feeling of being burdensome. I'm glad you can see through it.
