The veil of Hypocrisy...

“Some people are real. Some people are good. Some people are fake and some people are real good at being fake.”

Sometimes you need to take a few steps back in order to actually move forward. This last week, I have done precisely that - I may have been silent for the most part, but that does not mean I have not been present… I simply opted to “quietly observe”.

The decibels from voices that appear “only for the drama party” and no other occasion have become almost deafening! They screech at a pitch so unpleasant, it reminds me of a cat in an enormous amount of pain - “Fair Weather” individuals is the one side of their spectrum– but the other is the almost needy attachment to drama! – An “opportunity for exposure” cloaked as “a good deed” with the greater good in heart and mind… and I sit here, watching as it all unfolds, people cumbering to their tally of secret points… blindly, oh so blindly.

I wonder when the mass will actually wake up and smell the fucking roses.

Perhaps never,

but mark my words, your expiration date is approaching...
fake people will always move on to "the next best thing" -
they have no staying power,
no perseverance - nothing.

All they have, is what they get from FEEDING off others -
a source that is never sustainable...

...word to the wise,
open your eyes...

to the wicked witch of the west.

! will cloud you with shallow pleasantries,
entice you with animated apples,
and ride with a flag strapped horse -
but ! will never be real.

Don’t be fooled by their masks. Fake people eventually show their true colors. Just wait until their mask needs cleaning. ― Unknown

Until next time...

Hello jaynie, I feel deeply identified with you, these last two weeks (in which my health has tormented me a little) I have been in deep introspection and silence. I realized many things, many masks, those who here, I thought were my friends or at least esteemed me, were only attached to me out of interest. I thought that they really held me in high esteem. Now I know who is who and I just walked away quietly. Little by little and at my own pace.

Those kind of people will never be able to appreciate the true smell of roses.

Never forget, the Achilles heel of anyone who’s driving aim in life is to CONTROL the lives of other people is his or her aching need to be taken “seriously”.
No tyrant on any level can handle derision, it deflates them utterly by reducing their stature to its proper level in a way which they cannot escape.

Find hypocrisy through laughter.
Hypocrites hate being laughed at for having it pointed out..
We are all hypocrites to one degree or another,but some of us can laugh at our own hypocrisies.
The control freaks however -the dangerous type of hypocrite- go ballistic when this is done to them. The veil slips, whether they like it or not.

Hi, honey. A tight hug to sweeten your moment. In this world, all kinds of people exist, we can't help it; we just have to learn to deal with it.

I haven't been able to listen to the bleating much this week. Drama Vampires. And the real pity is that they tend to drown out the authentic and real.

“opportunity for exposure” cloaked as “a good deed”

Yeah, you got it bang on there. Noticed how many people we are seeing back here again that left because it was shit or powered down just about everything they had and are back now welcomed with massive upvotes such open arms... Lol. I am glad others see it too

Yes! This right here. Funny what a bit of drama will do...

Yeah, it makes you look with a more caustic eye at everything!

My ISP is the mother of hypocrites!

I don't know what to say to comfort you @jaynie. I wanna hug you, because I know no matter what I say may not be able to comfort you. 😢

I may not be able to fully comprehend your pain, knowing how passionate you have been to support everyone, but please know that my heart goes out to you. 😭

I respect you in whatever you do, and will respect whatever you decide to do in the future.

Much love to you. ❤❤

Wise words. It sticks out like a sore thumb as we say.

@jaynie

Thank you for your post. In my opinion, it's always important to highlight the less desirable behaviors of the human condition. I feel that way because I think that everyone becomes a part of the problem at one point or another. Some individuals, unfortunately, stay a part of the problem while others just transition to and from a hypocritical state.

I will tell you right now that I'm a hypocrite. As my sons get older, I speak with them regularly about moral behaviors and acceptable actions: "Say, 'Yes Mommy'" and "Never touch the stove unless Mommy or Daddy is next to you." I will tell them what they should do in one situation or another, even though I may have done something wild, and it was crazy fun for me. I will hypocrite myself to the nth degree to help them avoid past issues I faced. Am I fake when I do that? Perhaps I am.

I'm still new to this blogging stuff, so maybe I'm not getting out what I want to say clearly. I guess, to write that I enjoyed reading your article will suffice. Thanks again for posting.

And reading this I know you are one of the real people! Seeing as you posted before and got good rewards for sounding the war drums, you could of stayed there and enjoyed the benefits of making the screeching intensify. But you didn't, you came out and told the truth that was in your heart today. I find that most valuable and thank you for being this way.

"Just wait until their mask needs cleaning".
Sadly some never clean their masks my friend. You sound upset here, but know this only, they will always be around. We see plenty of great "helpers" in our charity world with hidden agendas to promote themselves.
They will do anything, promise anything, sweet talk you until the crows goes home, just to get their photo in the media and if not they will certainly drop you like a stone.
It is usually the self promoters that always loses out in the end.
All strength to you guys!

It has been an incredibly stressful couple of weeks here on the blockchain. It has brought out some real good in people, and it has brought out some bad. It's brought out both in some of us, too. I'm honestly not sure what the future will bring here, but at the least I'm pretty confident that you'll continue to be legitimate, whatever you do.

Watching, reading from the sidelines, it is sad to say some genuine people who love this space will defend what is felt rightfully theirs.

Others will shout louder to be heard as to how much has been invested, while all the time the smaller quieter few continue to add value, support knowing...

fake people will always move on to "the next best thing" -

Let us hope this does not take too long to adjust, it is very quiet in town today.

Why do you apologise for your comments as if you're remorseful for placing them, unsolicited, upon people's posts...But still place them there?

You're not sorry at all I think...What you are though is a troll and a bully imposing your will upon the good people of steem with no remorse, no conscience and no relevance.

I don't begrudge you your beliefs however your incessant trolling, and disrespect for others suggests to me that you don't care about your peers, or their wishes - You don't care for or respect others is what I mean...That hints of hubris my friend, (you can google that if you don't know the word), of ego and pride...Are you an egotistical person? Is your pride and ego more important than the wishes of others in the community and the feelings of other people in general?

Have you noticed you have a reputation of -5 right now? As does all your other creepy accounts...Notice you're on multiple blacklists? There's a reason.

Can I make a suggestion...Honour your beliefs in a more valid manner, cease imposing your will upon others and seek to spread your religious message through deed and action...I mean through living the life your book suggests rather than misinterpreting the words and imposing your false understandings upon others in the passive-aggressive manner in which you do thinking it will buy your way to heaven.

The crusaders did the same thing as you when they invaded the holy land in 1096 when Pope Urban II called for the Crusades.. Your little crusade here on steem is doing you, and your cause, no good whatsoever...And your god watches your poor behaviour, your egotistical, prideful and hubris-loaded actions with dismay. I doubt your religious convictions are truly heartfelt and pure.

No need to respond as the only response I would accept would be your silence.
