Two-Faced
A Flash - Talking out of the both sides of your mouth.17 total reviews
Comment from Amelie Johns
A powerful message in such a short piece. This one really made me think. Being two faced is part of being human. I don't like it when people are two-faced. I like honestly and transparency. Have I ever been two faced? Probably, yes. But not in a mean way. Probably in moments where being totally transparent and honest could be hurtful. I enjoyed this. Thank you for sharing.
Best wishes,
Amelie

Oh yes, we could present one face to someone, but be hiding one's true face from them all the time, of course the extra face is metaphorical, so even in that he was dishonest, this is a wonderful flash fiction Carol, blessings Roy

This is a great dialogue only message. Unfortunately, there are many instances when it's better to say or agree with the generally accepted principle rather than say what is really on your mind. You just don't tell women they're fat, or tell a child their artwork is ugly, or tell a writer their poem sucks. Instead, we display our happy face.

So many people are like this nowadays. I'm honest to a fault and don't sugarcoat anything, lol. Sometimes, this gets me in trouble. Thank you for sharing, Begin Again.
God bless,

There are a lot of those sorts around; you just can't trust people like them. I think you did a good job writing this one, Carol. I'm sure many people could tell you a story of someone they know like this. Well done, another lovely shortie. Love and hugs. Sandra xxx

I did get the message and it's a good one. I am curious how many of us know somebody who is two-faced. I bet all of us. Thank you for sharing and I enjoyed reading.

This flash is thought-provoking. You illustrated nicely that people are quick to judge, but don't realize they are doing the very same thing they're judging in others. Great picture! Blessings. Carol

This is amusing and really quite true. It he tells her she is beautiful and doesn't mean a word of it, he's actually proving how two-faced he is. Neither of them would be good friends to hang around with.
