God writes a lot of comedy... the trouble is, he's stuck with so many bad actors who don't know how to play funny. - Garrison Keillor

Suspicion is a new religion

That particular title up there is taken from Switchfoot's Selling The News song. The lyrics just struck me by how true it is today that we are often being fed with all of these fabricated stories and the true essence of the stories are being misled by people who just want their stories to sell. We're caught up with these false stories and somehow got confused whether you should believe it or not. Hence, suspicion is born. You start to suspect everything or have doubts on people. 

Another memorable line from song that further emphasize on the topic is "When nothing is sacred, there's nothing to lose".

People nowadays hardly acknowledge the sacredness of certain things like secrets you told somebody and you also told that particular somebody to not tell anybody. But somehow that particular somebody couldn't contain him or herself and start telling people about it. Uncontrollable spread of malicious rumours are very dangerous. It can result to suicide, broken relationship and great depression. But that is what people crave for rather than listening to the truth because truth hurts.

So, I let you guys listen to song and ponder upon it.
