The Greatest Pain



What is the greatest pain of all? My friends and I had our own share of stories of what I mean and lately, we realized we have something in common and it all boils down to one root cause.


I’ve been into trouble because of something that I think I did not do. It is because of misinterpretation of "Lying". You tell me, if something isn’t told, will it be considered lying? Isn't it that when we tell a fabricated story, then that's the time that it is a lie? In your argument, we have had this talk before, that you expect me to tell you everything. I admit that I did not comply and the expectations are not met, but it was not a lie. I understand the hurt and pain that you are in. I have been there and even experienced worst. You hoped for the best in me but I was complacent and hard headed. You gave me a chance and I blew it.

Betrayal can be forgiven but it will definitely leave a mark that will mold us to who we are now or tomorrow. It is still a choice of what will be our resolution. If we choose to hope, trust or love again but it will never be the same. Some choose to close themselves to prevent themselves from being in the same position that they were when they were betrayed. Some move on and keeps on living, ready and willing to get hurt again as long as it is in the arms of their loved one or never stops until they find the right one. Some needs time and time can heal pain. Some needs assurance, but how? Words are always not enough for me but this is the only thing that we can hold on to if we are out of time.

"To lie is to deliver a false statement to another person which the speaking person knows is not the whole truth, intentionally." - Wikipedia

Feel free to choose your definition.
