Welcome To The Hellmouth

Welcome to Emily The Vampire Slayer, my name is Emily (surprised?) & this is my personal webspace that is free for me to say as I like in. You don't agree with my ramblings? That's fine, leave. I'm not out to offend or upset anyone but, like most, I'm very opiniated... that can often get in the way of my desire to be friends with everyone I meet because I won't drop my beliefs for anyone. Why should I? But feel free to take a look around and comment my blogs. Any questions, issues or complaints can be addressed here.
Everybody Loves A Liar
23.06.08
Don't you hate it when you are really stuck on whether to believe something or not & you don't even know if you'd rather it were true; you weigh up what it means as a lie and what it means as the truth. That's sort of something that's happened and I'm unsure how much I can say about it on here because there's always the chance that the person in question may end up reading this. So no names.
If it is the truth, someone I love becomes very different in my eyes. Someone I consider a friend has done something I thought impossible of them to do and an act has been carried out that shocks and disturbs me. But at the same time, if this is the truth, it offers a glimmer of weird hope. Or maybe that's just how I percieve it, for the thing in question, seems to be, from what I have gathered, done under the influence of alcohol.
If it is a lie, where the person I love is concerned, nothing changes. But for the friend, this makes them a liar and, I hasten to add, very likely insane - and I mean that without joking. If it is a lie, then it has been constructed so intricately and cleverly and even ruthlessly. This kind of woven madness is not dredged from a sane mind. To look at the question: "Is this a lie or not?" You would have to access the reasons for such a lie. And there are reasons.
Let's imagine it isn't the truth. This could be stemmed from jealousy; or equally an eagerness to achieve jealousy from myself. From a longing for what they have said to actually be the truth - of which, I cannot blame them for wishing. It could have been imagined for shock, to gain some recognition, which definitely comes with something like this. It has been so well thought-out, no loop-holes except for lack of concrete evidence, how perfect that everything I have been told occurs when I'm conveniently not there or wasn't able to make it. If this was a crime it would be a crime with motive and no alibi, but the person who commit the crime would be a crazy genius. That is what it feels like, no, more than that; that is what it is, if this is a lie.
On the other hand, it could be the truth. It is an unlikely happening but not impossible & when something comes from a friend, you have to question: would they actually lie to me? Maybe, maybe not. Also, could an average person design such a story from nothing? Hard to tell. All I know is that there's no evidence for or against & they always say innocent until proven guilty. So for now, I can do nought but trust my friend and have faith in her sanity of mind.
