It’s all becoming clearer
It’s all smoke and mirrors
As everything draws nearer
We pretend to do the right thing
But life’s queerer than it seems
When you see the reality
It’s all a fallacy
To make ourselves believe we are better than we are

Each one's hero is someone else's villain, just as we are both & so much other in all that we do. Helping one means neglecting another. We cannot make everyone happy.
👏Smoke and mirrors for sure!!
