Honesty Is My Best Policy

I once told my brother when I was seven. "You can't tell a lie to cover up the truth but you can tell the truth to cover up a lie." What did I mean? Will when you tell a lie to cover up that lie you need to lie again, so how can you tell the truth? When you could be honest about the lie in the beginning so you don't have to lie again so no one gets in trouble. Easy as pie. As if he lessened, nope he still got in trouble while I eat my pie. Oh brother I do remember very well how much trouble he got into, he even tried dragging me into it with him. I said nope I am going over here where I can see freedom. Plus I can't even count on my two hands how many times he got timeout in his room. I always wondered if it was a boy thing or was it just his thing. I guess I will never know. All I do know is honesty is my best policy.

Be honest from the beginning plus no one can trust a lair. As I always say, don't follow the crowd unless the crowd is moving in a positive direction.

Ding! The crowd is moving up up up and away... Honesty is this way>>>>>
