BE UP-FRONT, BE HONEST

BE UP-FRONT.  BE HONEST

In your dealings with others don't play games.
The people you are playing games with understand the nature of your games
So they think you are either dishonest or just think that people you are dealing with are stupid idiots
But actually you are the idiot who think of others as non existing, non communicative apes
But you are the dishonest ape.
Its good for your integrity (Do you have any?) to ask for forgiveness for your ignorance of yourself and of others.
Get the ego out of the way.
Your ego is your monkey jumping on your back whispering in your ears, "You are the only one...You are the only one"  "ONly you, only you count."
Close your ears and don't listen to your monkey.
Monkeys are gone.. Turned  into human beings unfortunately.
Are you human?
Oh! you think so
Si be honest.  Be up-front.
