A very good discussion is going on with the true line: A straight trees are cut first. This line true almost every time, WE know the Honesty is the best policy, but when it exceed the limit, people started to take advantage of you.

An honest person always good and true for yourself and for others. They never have the intention to hurt you. But when person against you, try to take advantage and dominate you. It becomes wrong that time. They should do like others. An honest person always wins, because liar person can not be stable.

Hello,

I am Saisnata. Actually I am confused that, people often say those who take the positive side wins the success at last. Is that true?If yes, my question is that when this last comes. Look at the world history there has always been defeat and destruction of many sensitive people who are in positive side. Like Mohammad Ghori came and killed many sensitive people. When the last comes. Britishers came and made many huge loss, tortured, terminated and many people were killed, exterminated and segregated. When the last comes.

So I suppose those all to be past and let it away. But I could not any any positive chances in the modern world even. So can anybody is there who can make me clear that if this like things will happen, how the morality could be explored, how an innocent child can walk on a corrupted road.

Whether you are getting it off your chest, venting, expressing yourself, airing your feeling or just being honest, the truth about honesty is that honesty is not always the best policy.

We live in an era where people's moral value are more considered by other people. Society loves those people only who is honest with them, who are loyal towards them. A relation is only build if the person is honest and loyal with you. You don't step forward to make a relation with the person who is dishonest, because somewhere in your heart you know he can betray you any time in the life.

Yeah It is true straight trees are cut first, a person who is straight forward and honest, is criticized somewhere in his life but in the end he will find a place in society where his presence is more valued.

Yes, I agree honesty is the best policy. You can stay in a free mind without tension if you are honest. At the same time also should maintain patients. Its true that straight tree cut first but think about the cutter who is a fool. A honest person is always nearer to God so always blessed and loved by society. Its true people criticize them always, called as stupid, fool, etc. But at last they make a place in society. This time I request all to be honest and feel great.

We get hurt by seeing dishonest people around us then why should we hurt those few honest people by being dishonest? There should be few people who are honest and don't hurt people. May be we get hurt or loose opportunities by being honest.

But we can stand in front of mirror and proudly say, "I don't care what people think about me or what I have got by being honest, I have done my job honestly and I know that one day my good deeds will get counted. I am an Honest person and I know that I am wiser than all of you".

I am surrounded by dishonest, so-called people. It is a lonely world out there unless you have Honesty.

Honesty to me is knowing what needs to be said and not saying it. Lying is the same thing but it applies only when inquired about, what needs to be said still isn't said.

I believe white lies are discretionary and not necessarily bad. i.e. Honey your dress looks great! Even though it may not look THAT great. Nobody hurting, no collateral damage.

Lies that hurt people are bad because they leave a scar. i.e. Destroy lives, jobs, friendships, basic Trust. I haven't knowingly met an Honest person in months if not years.

Dishonesty is something I will not entertain nor allow around me. I will probably die lonely and poor but it is because of the dishonesty shaping the world around me.

There is a person in my class, who always says what is on there mind, it can get to the extent where it hurts peoples feelings. People say "Yeh so and so" is too honest. And I thought well, if they're too honest then you're implying that what they have to say is the truth which might not even be the case, so give that a thought.

If you follow honesty in every act of life then you will be put in so much of hardship that later on you remain lonely. Our political system is that we have to follow dishonesty for our survival in the society as for being stay in that right from birth to death one has to interact with government servant who though wants to be honest but even for their survival they became corrupt.

For your satisfaction you can opt honesty but never expect the same from others. Dishonest corrupt people are always liked by our rulers as they can be very easily manipulated for their selfish motivation. This is my experience as. EXCEPTIONS ARE ALWAYS THERE.
