Being wise, you could argue, is all about uncovering the multiple layers of illusion that this onion called ‘Life' has to offer to get to the core full of Truth. Or, to put it in less oniony terms, if we accept what the world's really like (not what we personally believe it to be like), we can focus on what's really important without stumbling about in the dark.

However, that means swallowing a looooot of inconvenient truths that prickle and pinch our egos and make us want to curl up like hedgehogs. Twitter user Colevsthewrld created a viral thread where people shared the hardest truths to swallow that they know of, so scroll on down for the best responses. Upvote the ones you know to be true.

Psst, Pandas, when you're done munching on all of these truth-pills, Bored Panda's got another post about inconvenient truths right over here for dessert. We hope you're like Neo from ‘The Matrix' cuz we're about to dive deep into reality and look past the (un)comfortable simulation we live in.

    Unless, of course, you have a contract. Then people owe you everything in the contract and need to explain why they are late!
