Incongruous

My word of the week
Incongruity in my lifestyle is (I believe) the cause of all the stress in my life. Those of you that know me will be thinking "what stress?", but it's true. The key to happiness is the ability to be totally honest. Unfortunately, that's not always an option. People don't want to hear complete honesty, so we prevaricate. We twist what we feel and think, mould it into something not quite true, to something that we perceive others will find more palatable. Even when we know it harms us. Bizarre as it sounds, it's actually often springs from love, an effort not too offend or upset.

The road to hell is paved with good intentions.
