Hello all Spotlight members…
Now i would like to share with you the value of a honesty to our life.
Personally, i always try to be honest to my family,to my colleagues, to my close friends, or let’s say to everyone i know but there are times and moments that ask me to tell lie. I don’t know how much lies I’ve made so far. Perhaps countless already. My boss asks me to come earlier tomorrow for busy work through call. I said yes but in fact, i came as usual time. I told him a lie already. “Are you experienced for the job of this position?” Someone asked me before. I confidently said “of course, Sir” while i wasn’t actually. That was another lie.
“How much did you spend for charity this year?”.... i would say “of course” more than the fact. it’s too bad to tell you but this happens for many of us for many reasons. I believe that this action is sinful and against the norms but once again, “why should i tell the truth if people around me tell lies too?”
I tell you for sure in this forum my friends… i must change myself to be more and more honest the next day before the time calls and punishes me. Now i realize that doing a true thing is hard but the result will make me comfort and peace.

How about you?

I think, everybody always try to be honest and me too.  But in many case, a lie has made us happy and bring you a share, a sympathize. Ex, a doctoc tell lie with patient to help him have a good look in life.

Hello there,
I’m new here. I’m from Brazil and my English is not so well but I am trying to improve it.
To me it’s not different but I take different decisions when I’m asking to tell lie.In fact, there are moments that ask us to tell lie but I always tell truth. My friends call me “super truthful”. I face this how a good thing but it’s not always. Some times someone ask me: What did you think about my hair? or thing like that… and I answer: It’s so much the worse. Indeed, the people always say they want to hear the truth but in fact it’s not. The people want to hear the things that are agreeable to them. I think the people must tell truth more times. It’s better to face truth than to live in a fantasy world.

I’m sorry about my English.
