HYPOCRASY and LIES

They both make me want to barf. i have done my best to steer clear of them and in the process i realised that its impossible to completely avoid them. at some point of the day,everyone becomes a hypocrite and start lying thro their teeth. it may be for just small matters but small leads to medium which leads to big and then huge.....sooner than u can comprehend you will become a compulsive liar.
the different reasons for lying amaze me.....the need to please people around you( a harsher word would be sucking up), the need to not hurt someone( u dont realise that most of the time they realise ur lying and end up feeling hurt anyway),to get out of sticky situations etc etc etc
there is a very thin line between lying and hypocrasy....for instance u can lie to a friend,if the situation really warrants it but being a hypocrite is the worst mark of friendship.its much better to be truthful and frank than to lie just to be on someones good side.
a person may get all the dishonest comments and undeserving praises from anyone but never from a close friend. then it totally damages the meaning of the word "close"
