My Stomach Hurts
"Mom, How come people lie"?
"Because they dont know how to tell the truth".
"Why"?
"Because they cant be honest with themselves".
"Why"?
"Maybe nobody taught them how".
"Someone has to teach you that"?
"Yes honey, just like making your bed and tying your shoes. If you dont learn then you can tell all kinds of lies."
"How come so many people lie"?
"Cause it gives them permission to do what they want."
"You have to get permission"?
"Well maybe not from others, but from yourself. If you cant fool yourself, then your concience will eat at you".
"Your concience eats"?
"Yes it does baby, it sits in your tummy and lets you know when youre doing something wrong. You can tell your mind anything so you can sleep at night, but your stomach will always let you know".
"I feel sick to my stomach".
"That's because somebody fed you some bullshit, didnt they"?
"I guess so. Can I have a cookie"?
