Lie

This is only my opinion, but lying to them is lying to yourself.

I lied to pretty much everyone all of my life, which ended up burying me deep under a mountain of darkness which I used to hide the truth from anyone and everyone. (I am old now , mid fifties) and a body that is rapidly failing mentally and physically. The hiding those lies forced me to do, ruined everything I ever did.

I am blaming nobody other than me, I am responsible for all of my actions and decisions, behaviors.

But it starts with one simple (if there ever was such a thing) lie to the ones closest to us.

I may no longer remember a lot of things but I can say with absolute certainty that I would do things differently in my early years if given the chance. That plainly means that I would be honest to myself and the ones around me and strive for betterment of myself and hopefully the relationships around me.

Right or wrong, that is only my opinion.
