  2. I just love this one!! Even though I always ask for the truth, it is not always what I want to hear.

  3. Brilliant. That's why there is a time to keep silent and a time to speak, so to say.

  4. Yes, as much as I don't like lying, I think sometimes a greater principle is in force: that of building up and not destroying other people.

  5. I agree! Truth is so relative. I'm not convinced that anyone really has a handle on what "truth" is; everyone's reality, and therefore truth, is slightly different.
