 stop being honest with people
that are not honest with you
it's not you, it's them
there is nothing you can do.
the attention
the loyalty
the effort you put in
are all pointless
they have made their choices
and those choices do not include you.
so, move on
stop the talk
and
walk the walk
journey the journey
to find where you truly belong. 
 well said 
 Great advice, especially for people arguing on X. 
 guilty as charged 🙋‍♂️ 
 More people need to understand it’s ok to agree to disagree, and then move on. 
 Also need to understand that if people hurt you, you don't necessarily need to hurt them back. 
 No you do not, however learn from it and move on.
Life is about learning how to navigate and moving on.

 What would you do if I sang out of tune? 
 zap you? 
 Would you stand up and walk out on me? 
 I'm not one to walk out on people 
 Thst's great!

 Life’s too short to worry about what others think of you. Live your life. If others want to understand you then great. If not, move along. This has been a philosophy of mine for a long time ✌️

 This is why I don't speak much. I just let the work speak for itself.

 Keep moving in synch with highest good.  

That’s all that matters. What they do, that’s theirs. And what bothers us about what they do does not need to be in the field of concern any longer. 

We are capable of dropping the weight that is not ours. 

Keep moving. 
 This hits hard

Being yourself means no walls and being vunerable af

 
 Don’t let other people’s ethics dictate yours. You know what’s right and you should continue doing it. They have their own journey and have to answer to their conscience at some point 
 keep in mind this is also useful in reverse:
if you're dishonest to people that are honest to you - save your soul by giving back all they gave you, do the best to equip them for the journey ahead and start it 
 👏 👏 👏 
 Not sure being dishonest is the right path.

I would say, be even more brutally honest and walk away from it. 
 Sucks but true 
 This is for me 🙏🏽 
 I get it. You're right. I'm a fucking moron about this. 
 I’m a victim too 😔 
 you two find Uncle at the next conference so we can break victim cycle 
 So you’re advising lying to them? Cuz I rarely lie. Instead, I will just filter out the people who lie to me! 
 no, I advise you to find a way to walk away, so you get to environment in which everyone is 100% honest  
 I agree but don’t think it’s realistic for a person to be 100% honest. 

A little white lie occasionally to not hurt someone’s feeling is ok, like if they ask for opinion on a hat or something.

But 99% honesty is definitely doable! 

But lying on major issues is NOT ok. 
 Rockstar I'm your fan . Keep doing what you do. We are amazed by your vision. Thanks for making this humanity better. World needs more people like you. We always have your back. You're voice to the voiceless people like me. Love ❤️ from India.

 Be and let be. Who is bad, will be bad.  Keep your distance from those who do not contribute to your life or your environment. I only try to surround myself with good vibes.  
 Works also for people that are not willing to listen to or to change. They take whatever you give give them and as long as you keep entertaining them.

Actions speak louder than any words. Usually,  a lonely path to walk but you’re not doing it nor living for others.

 
 Amen. 
 Amen! 🫂 
 Good people make you look good, bad people make you look bad 
 Without a doubt. The whole “surround yourself with positive people” quote is true 
 it is for me
