Those who speak truth, get the power to bear the consequences as well

The best thing about being honest and telling the truth always. You don’t need to spend time researching and developing a backstory to make your lie look like truth. You don’t need to remember your story and act by it. Next time, nobody will doubt you when you say something. You will have good reputation. You are at peace always.Why should we speak the truth?” Who says that we should speak the truth only. It is completely our choice. We can choose anything, either it is truth or lie. For me, to live a happy and a peace of life, we should stand for truth.

Because truth is a strength to us for standing by ourselves at any type of difficult situation. We don't need anyone's support also. We no need to fear about anything. Because no one has the capability to change the truth. “Just believe the truth,follow the truth.” It will keeps you safe, keeps you happy, keeps your mind with burden free, keeps you away from tensions, keeps you to be confident, keeps you honourable, keep you fearless and finally keeps your heart clean.. If your choice is to lie. Yeah.. it is your wish.. But remember these lines below.. before telling a lie.

Telling the truth and making someone cry is better than telling a lie and making someone smile. The truth may hurt for a while, but a lie hurts forever. You never frightened when you tell the truth. Growing up I always struggled with my voice. So, I always ended saying something which I didn't want to convey. I didn't value the strength of my own voice. The things which I used to say were basically influenced from other people. Because of that I lacked clarity. I never trusted what I felt about myself. In groups, I never had an opinion of my own. I followed people without giving a second thought. Now, my yes is yes and no is no. So life is sorted.

Truth is a baseline. Truth is based in fact. Let’s say for argument’s sake nobody ever spoke the truth. There wouldn’t be one human who would know what anything was. We would live in a factless world. Everything would be left to conjecture. I could say the sky was orange and you could say it was purple and both of us would think we were right - yet both of us would ultimately be wrong. We just wouldn’t know it. You think humans argue now? Imagine if there were no truth to act as a baseline. Imagine if everyone lied all the time. Everything, every notion in the world would be up for grabs. We would constantly be at war because the only thing any of us would hold as true is our own opinions. And we see how well that’s working anymore.

Look at America’s current president. He constantly lies. He lies about other countries. He lies about trade and the economy. He lies about what he does and has done. He lies about everything. And many people don’t know what to believe anymore. Now, magnify that by 7.6 billion. Without truth, nobody would ever feel compelled to improve themselves, because they would never have to face the truth of who they are. You wouldn’t be able to trust the products and the food you buy because you wouldn’t have a clue whether they could harm you until it was too late.

Is a world without truth a place you want to live? A little story: I lived with a couple of pathological liars at various points of my life. One time, one of them stole my rent money and fabricated a huge lie about how the house had been broken into and how he had chased the vandal away. He went so far as to ransack the place to make his lie seem more convincing, and blamed the incident on a neighbor. It got very ugly very fast. But when he started spreading lies about me to people I knew and people I didn’t know, telling them that I had AIDS (which I don’t), that was the last straw. And then his whole web of lies came out. I threw him out of the house, his employer fired him (for lying on his job application), his friends disowned him, and his partner left him. And he ended up dying with only a few of his immediate family caring anything about him. And guess what he died from… AIDS.

That’s why you should speak the truth. As long as truth remains our cultural baseline, being untruthful will ultimately work against you. People will not respect you. You will have no friends, you may not be able to keep jobs, and you will probably die miserable, unloved and alone. We rarely, or perhaps never speak the truth. What we speak thinking it to be true, is merely our perception, thought and belief. And perceptions, thoughts and beliefs, while true for you, may be quite far from truth. This may also be for matters established scientifically, which science may also think, represents truth. By the way, truth and fact are entirely different things, with facts having a point of reference and truth as something absolute and unshakable.

Truth, in the way we all use this word, is just a belief. And, a belief is rarely true. Perhaps they are half-truths, one may say, or a perspective that appears to be true. But that also means, it is half-untrue, is it not? Hence, it is untrue in the same reasoning one holds something as true. Truth is actually something that is unknown and inaccessible to entire humanity. We really do not have the intelligence or inward awareness for touching truth.It surely implies, whatever seems true to you, may not really be so. Let’s look at time for instance. If I ask, “is existence of time a truth in actuality?” You May say “yes” and point out the watch and his we grow old, age and die. Cheers!
