Eight great Reasons to Tell the Truth- Barbara A. Lewis



  1. Telling the truth lets everyone know what really happened. There's a less chance of misunderstanding, confusion, or conflict
  2. Telling the truth protects innocent people from being blamed or punished
  3. Telling the truth allows everyone to learn from what happened
  4. You usually get into less trouble for telling the truth other than for lying (and getting caught)
  5. Other people trust you more when you tell the truth
  6. You don't have to tell (and remember) more lies to keep your story straight
  7. You gain a reputation for being truthful- a trait most people value
  8. Telling the truth helps you to feel secure and peaceful inside

I agree with Barbara's eight reasons. As soon as you tell one lie there can be many consequences. There might not only be consequences for you, but also possibly for others. When someone has discovered that there is a lie they try to figure out who told that lie. No one might know, so random people just start being accused for telling the lie. Also, by telling a lie there will be people that won't trust you like before. If you were to just tell the truth in the first place you probably would have gotten into less trouble. Also, if you tell the truth you won't feel guilty ou lie you can't help but feel guilty.

"When a deep injury is done us, we never recover until we forgive." -Alan Paton I agree with Paton's statement. You will never be able to get over something and heal if you can't forgive. For example, a drunk driver killed two 20 year old girls. He was sentenced to 22 years in prison and the family of both girls were happy because they thought the judge brought justice. After some time the family of the girls decided to forgive the man and wrote a letter to him. The letter said that they forgive him for what he did. Not only did the family forgive him, but they also asked the judge to cut his time in half. The judge agreed. One of the moms said she did this because the only way to continue healing was to forgive. She was mad for some time when it, but she has learned to forgive and heal. The drunk driver is very thankful and realizes his mistakes.
