Character: Part 4. HONESTY

Starry wrote on 8/12/2006 11:15:04 PM :

1. Are you truthful, sincere, and straightforward?

2. Do you ever lie, cheat, or steal?

3. Do you ever intentionally mislead others?

4. When people are dishonest with you how does it
make you feel?

5. Do you think lying can ruin relationships?

My final thought from me to you:

Being honest frees us to be real...........so...... ...............Do you need to be a better person by being more honest to make our world a better place?

1. I always try my best.

2. No, but I'm honest enough to admit I would if I was hungry enough.

3. Mislead, not if I can avoid it, I also won't ruin Christmas for kids by telling them the real story about Santa.

4. It used to hurt at first. After a bit it just p155ed me off. Now I've grown to accept it. I'm a skeptic who still trusts people but I question everything I read and hear. To me lies are just part of the modern world, (newspapers, advertisements, political campaigns, hustlers, desperate people with good intentions, etc etc.) I just try to keep my guard up and learn about people by watching the big show.

5. Little white lies can help a relationship if not practiced all the time. Continnual ones will lose a person's trust and will eventually hurt a relationship. It's up to the people involved whether it destroys it or not. It's better to keep things quiet than to lie about them but that's a different story.

I hope this info can be of some use to you, Starlady.Smile [:)]

A: Absolutely, but when being straightforward, be sure to use tact. Wink [;)]

2. Do you ever lie, cheat, or steal?

A: I may occasionally lie to avoid a fight - I really hate fighting. My hubby says I don't have the conscience for lying, though, so I usually get busted anyway. Embarrassed [:$]

3. Do you ever intentionally mislead others?

A: Nope.

4. When people are dishonest with you how does it make you feel?

A: Angry. It's the number one family rule here: no lying! Tell me the truth, and everything else will be OK.

5. Do you think lying can ruin relationships?

A: Absolutely! It has and will continue to do so.

I think I'm probably as honest as I'll ever be. Have you read some of my answers? LOL. I didn't just write some of those to embarrass myself .... Wink [;)]
