The Young and The Restless Chat: Lies Come To Light
Posted by The Y and R Lady - 04/07/09 at 12:07 pmWow what a week on Y&R! We finally have confirmation that MJ is Patti and that Cane is a fraud. All these lies coming to light.
I think that what we will find out is that Cane had good intentions and was looking for the life he gained by being Jill’s son. However, we all know the saying, “The road to hell is paved with good intentions”
All I can say is that lying never saves anyone from any pain or anguish. We could all see the hurt in Jill’s eyes and of course a relapse for Katherine coming a mile away. The good thing is that they are on TV. They are paid actors and actresses and the hurt we see on their faces is real.
One thing “Restless” and I often say is that we watch the drama not live it. My suggestion to everyone who is an avid watcher is that you never let their art be your reality. It is not so easy to hurt or forgive once a lie has been introduced into a situation. It leads to mistrust and probably more lies to try and cover something that probably could have easily been forgiven or over looked.
Take for instance Cane, I do believe that he truly loves Lily. However now Lily is faced with making a decision and not knowing where the lie stopped or started. My advice continues by saying when you love a person no matter how hard it is to tell the truth it is in the best interest of all parties involved to be as open and honest as you can the first time. Each time you try to cover it takes away something from the other person. Even if you are afraid of what the truth might mean I know that it is better to be upfront then have to try and rectify the duplicity involved with hurting them and then lying to them. The truth always comes out in the end, you can either be in control and considerate of the other person or get caught up in the mess.
Regardless of if you are a habitual liar it is never to late to change. If you are a scared liar and lie when you feel your back is up against the wall find the strength to tell the truth. If you lied because you thought you were doing the person a favor, whatever the reason just stop doing it and come clean. After that it is in the person’s hand who you have wronged to either forgive you or not. You can’t make demands or get rewards for telling the truth. However what you will have is some relief from the guilt of keeping a secret from someone you care about.
So you know I don’t normally veer away from what’s on the screen but with all the secrets that have been revealed lately I thought it was a good topic to discuss.
More to come shortly! As usual, I put enough in and left enough out for each of you to add your own ingredients. So get in the Mix!
