These masks can be literal changes in the physical nature of the person‚ or they can be a change in character. Character changes can often consume

    The Cost of Lying Trust is like a mirror‚ once it is broken‚ it is never seen the same again‚ and that is the cost. No matter how hard you try to put it back together‚ the cracks are always visible. No one wants to be a liar‚ no one wants to be a dishonest person. One might presume that a person will lie because they want something they can’t have with the truth. Recalling back to my childhood‚ I was unable to be like other children where they were able to have fun‚ running‚ jumping‚ and

    the same gods as Athens while extorting the truth for his personal benefit‚ disregarding the pureness of Athens and its youth. To begin‚ Socrates did not believe in the same gods as Athens‚ the easiest of his convictions to prove because of his Apology. In his plea‚ Socrates distracts the jury with stories of disbelievers. As the defense begins‚ he does not say that he does believe or disbelieve in the gods of Athens‚ since the easiest answer for an innocent man is “I did not do it.” Instead
