The lie is a door.

 


Byzantium is a world of contradictions. Some years ago, a very smart man told me that the world spins on opposites. Some we embrace. Some we let go, but at other times, when stuck, we lie. The latter can become a psychological issue, because the lie is "secreted" away in the edges of our minds. The result is neurosis. And the long search for labels. Most people will go through their lives running from one label to another, one doctor to another, one psychiatrist to another. Others it is one drink or drug to another. But the lie persists. Labels are comforting, they name the hidden for us, they bring certainty where none really exists. The lie is a door.
