Disappointing conclusion

Sometimes I wish my brain would shut up. Today I figured out that someone had lied to me. I wish I had let it alone, but no, my brain has to keep going, keep mulling things over until it presents me with a unpalatable conclusion.

I confirmed it, of course, hoping I was wrong, but I wasn't. Sigh. I would be a much happier person if I was less intelligent. I'd be happier if I could learn to live with the fact that people are often selfish, even those who say they love us the most, and that I won't ever be a priority for some people.

It's just so discouraging. I don't think I'm alone in wanting someone to really be on my side. I always say it's easy to find critics, but so much harder to find true supporters. I don't know why that is so, but it is.

Anyway, I'm going to have a cup of tea and do other things and try not to think of it. The nice thing is that I don't have to confront this lie. I can let it rest. If I can. And I'm going to try.

The truth does set up free, but sometimes it sets us free to be disappointed.
