Honesty Is the Best Policy

It is usually better to be honest than dishonest. Sometimes honesty may get you in trouble or hurt someone, but usually telling the truth is less harmful than lying. Dishonesty can result in guilty feelings, cause distrust and ruin your reputation.

One of the worst things about lying is that it causes a guilty conscience. Even if no one discovers the lie, you will know about it, and it will bother you for a long time. Is a lie worth all that guilt? Another problem occurs when you lie to someone, and he learns the truth and discovers you lie. Then you will really be in trouble. He will be angry because you were dishonest with him, and he will not feel that he can trust you any more. It is a very sad thing to lose someone’s trust. If you lie a lot, eventually you may gain a reputation as a liar. And once you have gained a reputation as a liar, it is very hard to get rid of it. On the other hand, if you are a very honest person, people will trust you, and you will be known for your honesty. Do you still remember the boy who cried wolf for several times? In the end nobody believed him and all his sheep were eaten by the wolf. All that his lies brought him was shame and unhappiness.

Honesty makes you happy and gains a good reputation. A good reputation is better than money in the bank.
