Why People Don't Tell The Truth

The most dangerous untruths are truths moderately distorted. 

~Georg Christoph Lichtenberg

Everyone  tells a white lie on ocasion,

it 's just a question of why...

Some white lies save relationship,

some ease a hectic situation,and

others buy us time or a good feeling...?

The list could go on forever.

Stretching the truth is a natural component

of human instinct because it's the easy way out.

We all do  it, so there is no reason 

to deny it.

Honestly, I think the world is probably a better place because of our white lies.

As long as we aren't hurting others 

or breaking the law,these

innocent lies can make life more pleasant. 

They can absorb potential friction between our 

varying personalities and

vacillating moods as we nudge into one 

another on that quest through our

daily routine.

Most of these white lies only

stretch an interpretation of what 

the truth actually is anyways.

Given our ridig optimism to each lead

a tailored ideal life, white lies simply

cushion us from ourselves...

However, it can destroy years of friendship ... 

 if only  it was a real friendship?


With lies you may get ahead
in the world 
 but
you can never go back....
