A very large number of people nowadays chooses the comfort lie rather than the painful truth, whyâs that you ask? Well itâs because we avoid these realities because weâre afraid of how these experiences will make us feel.
Some people chooses to lie their way out of a situation to save themselves saying âsmall lies donât matterâ or âI lie to protect the feelings of othersâ. Those people that say those âprotectsâ themselves from the potential pain and consequences that are expected to experience from their feelings or even their own judgement.
In my opinion, the truth will always be the priority in every situation, no matter how painful it is, itâs better to take in that truth than take that comfortable lie that could possibly damage relationships in the future. Even if it hurts others, itâs always better to be honest to them so it doesnât do much damage anymore. Not telling the truth can be bitter and severe a lot more aspects in your life. Honesty is all about the emotional truth in any situation.
