Who wants to hear the truth?

No-one really!

Ayn Rand said: "The truth is not for all men but only for those who seek it."

Sadly, no-one wants to hear the truth, never mind to speak the truth!
You see, the truth hurts, it demands an effort, an open mind, to think, to digest, to question,

It is so much more convenient to sit back, relax and let someone else decide what you must think, know and do. And then, when the chickens come to roost because of your inactivity, concern, i.e. when it is too late, then people moan.

Life does not have a reverse gear...
