This principle applies logically to the relationship between human. A
ruthless truth about something may severely hurt your friends’ mind
and soul. For example, when you go to a friend’s birthday, your friend
asks you about whether her dress is beautiful or not. Will you point to
her dress and say that: “This is the ugliest dress I have ever seen?” If
you do so, it means you spoil her birthday and it is a very ruth, impolite
saying. Sometimes, a white lie can make a person feels happy about
him and the relationship. Confrontation and disputes may be avoided.
However, there is always the risk factor of the truth emerging sooner
or later when telling an untruth. The basic trust in any relationships
(businessman/customer, friends, parents /children) will be blotched,
and would have an impact on the future relationship between both
parties. No one will believe you when you’re telling the truth again
after lying. Your word will have no weight and no person will hear you
that time.
In addition, the other disadvantage of telling lie is that you will no
control when the truth emerges. Everyone will hate you and in the next
time, when you tell the truths, they will not believe you anymore. For
example, you got an F in your Mathematic test; you told to your mom
that you got an A in that test. After a long time, when the truth
emerges, your mom will not believe you anymore when you tell the
truth. Untruths breed pains in both parties: tears when the truth is
uncovered after a period of time; fear and the burden of sharing a
“secret”. In the long run, it seems that hiding the truth is not beneficial
to either party.
Everyone hates betrayal. Even if it is the trend to occasionally hide
the truth in relationships, it is strongly recommended that not to follow
that trend as the risk and the consequences of the truth unfolded
