Liars, Lies and Lying

Most liars are stupid people, because they assume that everyone is stupid enough to believe them. However, they forget at least two things:
1) people are pretty good at sussing them out
2) people are more cautious with people they have caught lying before, and most liars are serial liars.

People constantly lying are eventually isolated and ostracized.

Professional Liars

However, there are a few categories of professional liars and at the top of the list from a life-long experience has to be politicians. They usually hire even more professional liars to help them analyse the best way to couch their lies, so that they will be difficult to detect. This group includes spin doctors, PR and media consultants.

If you want to get an idea of how much you are being lied to, check out how important these guys are to a politician or his/her party.

Company Liars

Companies also use professional lying emplyees to make sure that their brands appear in the best light possible. You may think that there is nothing wrong with that, but most people expect to be told the truth, although most expect it less and less with age.

Used-car salesmen are not even in the same class. They are mostly very intelligent people who have to make up their patter on the hoof. They don’t have a team of pro’s to help them with their speeches.

The third most important category is cheating spouses and addicts. They can be very inventive, but they always get caught out in the end, just like the politician and the used-car salesman.

It might seem obvious to us, but they have been getting away with it for ever, if you translate the word car into house, chariot, horse or gemstone.

Owen Jones, Amazon Best-Selling Author from Barry, Wales, has lived in several countries and travelled in many more. While studying Russian in the USSR in the '70's, he hobnobbed with spies on a regular basis; in Suriname, he got caught up in the 1982 coup; and while a company director, he joined the crew of four as the galley slave to sail from Barry to Gibraltar a home-made concrete yacht, which was almost rammed by a Russian oil tanker and an American aircraft carrier.
“I am a Celt, and we are romantic”, he said when asked about his writing style, “and I firmly believe in reincarnation, Karma and Fate, so, sayings like 'Do unto another...', and 'What goes round comes around' are central to my life and reflected in my work. I write about what I see, or think I see, or dream... and, in the end it is all the same really”. He speaks seven languages and is learning Thai, since he lives in Thailand with his Thai wife of fifteen years.
His first novel, Daddy's Hobby is from the seven-part series 'Behind The Smile: The Story of Lek, a Bar Girl in Pattaya', but his largest collection is 'The Megan Series', twenty-three novelettes on the psychic development of a teenage girl, the subtitle of which, 'A Spirit Guide, A Ghost Tiger and One Scary Mother!' sums them up nicely. He has written fifty novels and novelettes, including: Dead Centre; Andropov's Cuckoo; Fate Twister; The Disallowed (a philosophical comedy); Tiger Lily of Bangkok; and A Night in Annwn (Annwn being the ancient Welsh word for Heaven). Many have been translated into foreign languages and narrated into audio books.
Owen Jones writes stories set in Wales, Spain and Thailand, where he now lives. He is a life-long Spiritualist, and this belief is interwoven, in a very realistic way, into many of his books and storylines. If you like a touch of the 'supernatural', try his books
He sums his life up thus: “Born in the Land of Song, Living in the Land of Smiles”.
