Tell The Truth?

Noble lies

Or Hidden truth?

Shield of strength

Or running scared?

Time to tell,

Or maybe not.

Burdened secrets

Or sweet release?

Revelations all to clear

Or cloudy half-truth

Status quo the safer.

Certainly thought-provoking. Motives felt for just keeping silent about what need not be spoken about, motives felt for having to lie, or avoid the question, distortions of truth that are often really lies, slander.

On your own front, how have you been getting on? Rhiannon

In some ways struggling, but in others walking closer to God.  Overall getting on well.  I am back teaching full time for a couple of years if health etc hold up.  I believe it is for a purpose other than my own personal aspirations.  Good to hear from you Rhiannon.  

I am hoping to get on with ch3 of my novel over the half-term break.
