Martha Stewart??????

When I first read this assignment I wasn't sure who to write about. The problem is when when a person is a hypocrite most people are not aware that they are being lied to. However; after some thought I was able to come up with quite few. See when you lose everything: your job, your car, and your house. You find out real quick who your real friends are. I not going to write about them though, because the biggest hypocrite I have encountered used to be my neighbor. When we moved here she was one of the first people that I met. After this meeting I was very intimidated. All I have ever wanted was to be a mom and my neighbor was the ultimate mother and wife. I actually told her I was living next to Martha Stewart. She made bread from scratch, they didn't have cable T.V., and the only phone was the house phone. Needless to say I felt like a complete failure. I lived next to her for several years and she was able to keep up this facade for awhile, but then all of the blocks started to fall. First my husband started seeing her leave at all hours of the night. Then her husband started catching her lying. She was supposed to be at the soccer game and when he called her friends no one had seen her all day. You see she had starting having and affair. This behavior went on for some time. There was no real proof yet. We only had our suspicions. Then she made a big mistake. She was caught at work with the man she was having the affair with in a book closet. The worst part was she worked at an elementary school. The school that her kids went to. When I realized that this was the kind of person she was I was extremely disappointed, and for a long time she kept letting people think that she was the perfect mother and wife. I was a huge mistake on her part. Her oldest son who had been a straight A student started failing and doing drugs and she had cable T.V. put in her house and her elementary age child received a cell phone. The lying was bad, but what made it hard was trying to explain to my kids why their friends were getting all of these things without telling them about the affair. I don't think people consider just how far reaching the damage can go. They are only thinking of themselves.
