Eight Great Reasons to Tell the Truth -Barbara A. Lewis
Telling the truth lets everyone know what really happened. There's less chance of misunderstanding, confusion, or conflict.
Telling the truth protects innocent people from being blamed or punished.
Telling the truth allows everyone to learn from what happened.
You usually get into less trouble for telling the truth other than for lying (and getting caught).
Other people trust you more when you tell the truth.
You don't have to tell (and remember) more lies to keep your story straight.
You gain a reputation for being truthful - a trait most people value.
Telling the truth helps you to feel secure and peaceful.
I think that this is a good quote because telling the truth is a huge trait and a lot of people get lied to just to either be protected or make them feel good. I personally think that telling the truth is a loving act, honestly anyone can tell you the truth it's just a matter of if they want to tell you the truth or they just don't because they think that the truth is too harsh and they don't want to see you hurt. But also some people that you think like you and you think are your friends might just lie to you because they like to either see you hurt or they just like hurting you so they might tell you the truth but it might not be the whole truth. Always tell the truth because telling the truth especially to one of your loved ones or a friend because it shows that you really care about them and you don't want to lie to them because then if they find out the truth they might lose trust on you and you wouldn't want that to happen, so always tell the truth not just because it's the right thing but because you might feel good and you might the other person feel better because you told them the truth even if it was good or bad.
