Truth About A Lie: . . . each lie "steals" a sacred part of you . . .

This book is based on the premise that you do not need to teach a person, regardless of their age, to lie ... it's a part of our Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) makeup. Lying requires a lot of effort. When you tell the truth, you simply remember what happens. When you lie you have to consider what you're trying to hide, figure out a believable version of the opposite, give a convincing performance to sell that lie, and then remember it for the rest of eternity so you never get caught. We handle this constant lying well considering how remarkably often it occurs, but that's especially easy to do when we have an easy time ignoring the consequences.
