Reason to be Truthful

Being truthful is a virtue. Truth is gentle, healing sponge that keeps our conscience clean and spotless. This does not mean that we won't have anguish, be tempted, be filled with fear, or even sometimes lose friends - at least people who called themselves as our friends - through telling them the truth. Even though telling the truth is the right way to go, it will definitely challenge us. But in the long run this will also make us feel powerful and clean because we have done the right thing. Truth can make us a better person. It it something that no boarding school or educational institution can teach us. This is because the concept of truth is very subjective. If one would choose to tell lies, the that person will probably begin to choose other wrong directions in life. If, on the other hand, one would choose truth, that means that you are making positive, clean, strong choices that will lead you into a straight but better and happier way of life.
