Lying With Integrity



Although we've always been told to tell the truth, I can honestly say I don't. I can see how honesty is really the best policy, but I don't think that there is anything wrong with telling small white lies,especially if it saves you from upsetting someone or offending them. If we always told the truth it might even get us into serious trouble, if for example your a racist or a sexist. We also lie to save ourselves from embarrassment, as if we don't have the latest game or fashion accessory we might be looked down at. Serious matters like infidelity or crimes should be admitted, but otherwise, if you can get away with it.......
