Watch the disappearing head... Nobody likes to swallow the truth

Poem Artwork



people
don't know

people
don't care

people
screw a lie
before the truth
can clear the air....

people
run stupid
from good things they fear to know
like Toyota and the Asian yen
when US cash is low

people
like sameness
they cheer for the insane,
people
justify and lie
to cover up their game

people are so funny
they lie on what they hate
instead of thinking logically
they'll sit and lie in wait

people just don't get it
and would rather fuss and yell
and if we don't band together
we all travel straight to hell

Logic vs. Fear? This entire situation can be applied to most human situations where fear of loss takes over win-win situations for everyone involved. It's no different than Congrespersons not admitting that we still can't catch Bin Ladin and there were no WMDs in Iraq. (That's me and my first amendment right, just like we all still have -- for a little while at least. But regardless, TRUTH always comes out, even it we don't like it...we better learn to live with it.

Examples:

Joystar shocked by RCCL decision.

YTB Responds to Royal Caribbean
(and yes, we know ALL of the founders of YTB personally, as in "had deep conversations with them all.....)

My reply in my blog "Loose Lips"
Bottom line and then I'm done stick a fork in this mess....

People are never perfect, but you know, RCCL just went straight illegal because they KNEW, and were just afraid without standing for the truth about YTB which is TWO legitmate companies. Folks, the internet ain't goin' nowhere. But people are not forced to do anything with it. Same goes for everything in our lives, including travel.

God bless all those who bad mouth something without knowing what they are talking about. WE know, and that's enough for this little black size 18 midlife woman working with a passion to help others...and YTB is doing just that for our family. I just wonder why Royal Caribbean stooped so low as to not tell the world that they badmouthed the entire Tomer family? What was UP with that???

Yes, far too many are afraid to face the truth, they would rather be lied to. You point this out so well, enjoyed.

Be safe,

Wow! A profound write you've penned my friend, it seems that society is sinking deeper and deeper into deceit, cover ups, lies, and scandals! You tell em dear friend, shout it from the roof tops and continue to stand up for what you believe in! Speaks loud and clear!
Blessings,

Cynth'ya,

Jealousy, perhaps? Because y'all are doing something for yourselves, for the world, benefitting all in the process? Seems to me they've turned green (and not from seasickness, although they're probably feeling sick LOL). Keep at 'em, Cynth'ya, don't give up on your dreams!

Love this write, speaks volumes, and that gif LOL

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
