How it feels
A month, wow!! An entire month without a lie! Just saying that is like a breath a fresh air, it's something I would of never thought possible. There is some saying about having to do something so many times for it to become a habit, I don't know if "not telling lies" can become a habit but I feel I'm on the right track. I had many moments where it was tough, especially in the beginning, but as I became more aware of the lies getting ready to happen I was able to cut them off. The struggle got less severe as more time passed between my lies, it's still hard. I thought this weekend was going to be hard, a real test. We bought a car and I thought for sure I was going to have to fabricate something when dealing with the seller, but the fears were just in my head, it was a painless process thankfully. The wife and I have come seemingly a long way in a short time, back to a happier place. For awhile I just waited for the bottom to fall out, for the other shoe to drop, it's unhealthy behavior so my goal is to just live every day for what it is, to continue with the truth, and let whatever is going to happen, happen.
