Have you ever wondered why human is the only creature on earth that have the ability of deceiving? As much as I'm afraid of snake and all other reptilian out there, sometimes I wish that people I interact with is as simple as them. A cold blooded predator who have no other intention than to eat you and be straight about it without faking a smile. To be honest, I'd rather be with people who clearly hate me, rather than being with people that pretend to love me. Don't you think that this life would be so much easier?
I guess that would be the beauty of life. The art of survival of every creature in the world, the ability to fit even in the deadliest environment. Sometimes the only way to survive is to deceive others. It's sad, but it's the reality. It's the nature of our existence, to fight for our live. But what is the meaning of life if it's just a series of lies and deceit that we play over and over again for the rest of our life?
I believe it's a choice. A bitter choice that we have to fight everyday between right and wrong. An ambiguous priority that drives us crazy. But then again, it's so amazing to see that human is the only creature in this world that have the ability to do a hypocrisy, the highest level in the art of deception. When the feeling in our heart doesn't really matter anymore.
So what do you think? Is it a bless or a curse? Sometimes if wish I could fly to the moon, away from everything..
