So I was having this conversation with a friend of mine last night and something we were talking about is telling white lies to friends in order to keep their happiness and ease of mind. I conceded that I have done this on more than one occasion. Is that a bad thing, necessarily? I mean, I don't lie about everything. Just sometimes I feel that I must hide what I want in order to carry through with their happiness. Does that make me a bad person? My friend said they wanted to know every truth no matter what their personal expense is. But I don't know that I could put another person, especially one close to me, in an awkward position by telling the whole truth. (And now I'm sure everyone is going to be second-guessing every word that comes out of my mouth.) It's something I've been thinking about a lot lately. I strive for honesty but I also wish the best for the ones I love so dearly. I do feel bad telling people a lie. However, I want them to be happy. It's complicated, this life thing.
