I just can’t help but smile crazily at my first sighting of this topic. I had to laugh out a little bit after reading the short note attached to it because over a thousand and one things ran through my head at once after i went through it. Honestly, the reason for my laughter wasn’t mainly because of the topic itself, the main reason I laughed was because the first person that came to my mind immediately after i saw this prompt was talking about lies and liars was ME. Oh yeah, you heard it right, it’s me…
When it comes to some aspects of telling lies, i think i hold a very high position in that regard, i know this might sound quite silly and even funny, even to me it is very funny but then that’s the truth, it is what it is. This is what circumstances and people have turned us into. I know for a fact that telling lies are bad and that it shouldn’t be encouraged for any reason, but then what happens to the fact that even when we say the truth sometimes, most people have a big problem believing it because in their minds and heads everything that comes out of the human mouth has 80 percent lies and 20 percent truth in it, which is quite wrong of them…
If there’s one thing I’ve noticed and learnt in the last couple of couple of decades, it’s the fact that humans don’t like being told the truth, what they want at all times is someone who is quite good at manipulating the truth and for that reason many of us have become very perfect at telling lies…
Well, mine is still good to an extent, atleast i lie for good reasons, especially when the lies will save me from a bigger trouble or drama and it is inevitable. I know of someone who has told more lies than truth in his life. Honestly, i call this guy a weirdo because he is a lying machine, telling lies is just very easy for him and because of the fact that he tells more lies than truth we hardly believe him when he is being honest. This is what excessive lies can lead to…
I was a big liar in the past but everything has changed now. Even now I lie sometimes but then i am at that point in my life where lies won’t do me much good, it would rather taint my image and I don’t want such, and for that reason i just come out clean and face the consequences of my actions. I apologize if need be and that’s it, easy peasy, no stress no drama…
What is bad is bad, there is no other explanation for it. I know there are some situations where it is inevitable to tell a lie, probably because it is safer to tell that lie at that moment than coming out clean because of what might happen afterwards. The end result of a something like this is unpredictable but then decisions like this are influenced by emotions and feelings and that’s why it would be very hard to blame anyone who does something like this…
Sometimes a lie can be justified and at the same time it can come as an excuse. At the end of the day, it depends on our respective perspectives. Some lies are justified, especially when it’s a do or die situation, even if at the end of the day the truth would come to light, atleast the outcome of that truth can be prevented at that moment…
Honestly, I think this thing is actually a two-way fact. Some lies are justified while some are just silly excuses to justify the truth, but then it all depends on the circumstances around it…
In conclusion, i agree to both statements, sometimes it is better to hide the truth and sometimes it is better to say the truth, but then the reason behind either action should be taken note of to avoid a bigger issue…
THANKS FOR READING…
Having the habit of lying as an adult can tarnish your reputation as you stated, but sometimes some lies are necessary.
