Thruthfulness and honesty in today's world is a virtue. I am trying hard to help Cherith imbibe this quality into his core. He has these sadly questioning eyes when I ask him to speak the truth. "Sach bologe toh koi nahi daatega, jhooth bologe toh koi bharosa nahi karega"
He is visibly skeptical but eventually now, he has to quite some extent learnt that truth does save him from trouble.
All of us, since our childhood have been taught the habit and importance of saying the truth. Are we ever told what price we would have to pay for saying the truth??
I have been an endorser of the truth but I also accept using white lies to make people happy, they are purely intentional and harmless though..
There have been instances when I have made most hurtful declarations. They might have hurt people, made them think ill about me, also taken them away from me emotionally but my intention was just to be honest.
While reading the above lines, you too would have been brushed back to such bitter experiences. Saying the truth in a relationship and being slapped, questioning a wrong decision and being fired, fighting a right cause and being accused instead. These are usual returns today.
Standing by someone unimportant while he/she is right and with you losing a lot of important things. It indeed takes a lot of courage to speak the brutal truth but that's only the first time. After it becomes a habit, it is the most easiest thing to do.
Truth alone triumphs!
As for the returns, with all my heart I would say, sincerity to yourself is of utmost significance. And being honest and losing something less dangerous than having a heavy soul.
However hard you try to mend things with the help of manipulation and lies(they may even work sometimes), the short term gains will blur our sights and make us unaware of the capital losses we are going to incur.
In the end, we lose everything for those little momentary gains. There is nothing much you can do about things that have happened already but touch your heart this very moment and take an oath to be true to yourself now on.
Finally, you will be the owner of the genuine price of truth. A liberal, light weight, guiltfree soul.
Cheers!!
God bless!
