The Truth Hurts But So Do Lies

I sometimes find it hard to accept the truth as I am sure others do as well. One lesson I have learned is that telling the truth is always going to have the best outcome, verses being dishonest. Although the truth may hurt at times, the truth definitely makes things a lot easier to deal with. When telling one lie you usually have to tell another which eventually turns into a domino effect and makes a mess out of situations. Lies can bring turmoil to relationships, friendships, and not to mention break hearts. As I am sure most of us have learned that honesty is the best policy, we have to remember how bad it feels when someone lies to us and lying to someone else can hurt also. As I have watched lies break peoples hearts they have definitely broken mine as well but just because someone lies to me does not at all mean that I have to be dishonest in return. I will always live by honesty being the best policy and telling the truth will always make me the better person. I want the truth no matter what and I will also give the truth in return. Lying is definitely one of my biggest pet peeves and I often find it hard to forgive someone who has lied to me because of the hurt it brings and how betrayed I feel by the person who has lied to me. Remember a lie doesn't care who tells it but the truth doesn't either.
