Honesty

How important is honesty to you? Is it more important than kindness? Share a story of a time you or someone you know was not honest and it caused problems or was 'too honest' and it caused problems.

Of course honesty its important. If you lie a lot you won't have a lot of friends. The friends you do have might not like the idea of you lying to them if they do find out who you are. I can't really think of a time were I really lied to my friends. I do it when I am joking but I don't make up stories or lie to them really at all. I am a very honest person. Kindness goes a long with honesty. You aren't being kind if you lie to people. If you are honest then you are being kind to the people around.

I can only think of a movie called Confessions of a Shopaholic. She built whole relationship of lies with her friend and a man she cared a lot for. They all found out and she lost everything she cared about most except her family. When she realized what she had done she changed her life and got her friends back and the man of her dreams. In this movie you can really see what lying can do to you and the people you are around the most.
