My only question is: do you lie or are you in denial. LOL #------------------- Denial is a defense mechanism postulated by Sigmund Freud, in which a person is faced with a fact that is too uncomfortable to accept and rejects it instead, insisting that it is not true despite what may be overwhelming evidence. The subject may use: 1. simple denial - deny the reality of the unpleasant fact altogether 2. minimisation - admit the fact but deny its seriousness 3) projection - to assume that other people around you are feeling the same, or to accuse someone of doing what you are to feel better about your own situation http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denial #------------------------- A lie (also called prevarication, falsehood) is a type of deception in the form of an untruthful statement, especially with the intention to deceive others, often with the further intention to maintain a secret or reputation, protect someone's feelings or to avoid a punishment. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lie #------------------------- Regards, LelandJ _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
