Be real

With the idea of honesty, it is hard to not support the text. But i do feel that honesty is always the best road to take. But in most cases it is the best road to take. I think if that the truth is going to come out it needs to come out. I feel that if people want to lie or fabricate stories to make themselves sound better, then let them do it or you could call their bluff. Tell the realy story to other people. The people who are lying are only hurting themselves. I am not saying that i have not lied before, i have lied plenty of times in my day, but it takes more work to keep a lie than it is to tell the truth. If people want to tell stories about how they did this and they did that, go ahead.
There are times where telling a lie is okay. When my girl friend asks me what i think about something, i give her my honest opinion (most of the time). But if i can tell that she really is happy about the choice she made or is really happy about something and asks for my opinion, i will side with her because it is what makes me happy. I know i contradict myself here but i honestly think that telling the truth is easier than telling a lie. People want to talk to and communicate with a person who is honest and has a good head on their shoulders.
