Lies, Lies and more Lies!

Does anyone stop to think about how much lying goes on in this world! Really sometimes I wonder what it would be like if everyone made an effort to justbe honest plain and simple even for a week for some people so they can see it is okay to be honest! What makes me think about this is a recent trip to Las Vegas, surfing the internet and people we know. I was in Las Vegas this past year for 3 days. By the last day I just felt so overwhelmed by all the dishonesty. One example is the tricks and lies they pull to get you into to a time share appointment in hopes ot sell you the time share. I couldn't believe there was lie after lie. I was with 4 people and I said look no this is a big scam a big lie we aren't going, What ever they say they will pay us to listen it won't actually be what we think we are getting. Now the guy was so shocked because he said I was the only person in the group that he thought he had for sure. So we left. A few steps down the road he ran after us and upped the anti with more false promises. Finally we agreed to go for the time share talk. Only to find out a few minutes into our ride it was not going to be 2 hours out of our time but 4 at the least. That was only the first lie! There were lies everywhere I went for this thing and another thing. I surf the net looking into this on line money making sites. Sure there are some good honest ones out there but it is overwhelming just how many that are out there that are so dishonest and make it really bad for the honest ones because you feel like you can't trust anybody. I am sure many of you have noticed this. What about friends? You call and ask if they will come over for dinner tonight or come for a visit this afternoon. They would rather tell you they have plans then to say nah not today I just don't feel like it I am in the mood to stay home and do nothing. What the heck is wrong with saying no for the sake of saying no? Why do we or many feel the need to lie? Why has lying become a normal accepted way of life?
