An Example Of Honesty

By | December 15, 2022

You’ve probably been there—gotten scammed by someone or done in by a selfish person only looking out for their own interest (to the point of lying to you). We’ve all been there. There’s nothing worse than realizing you’ve been deceived, you were conned, and people are dishonest.

Experiencing dishonesty can provoke a real anger response, and suffering dishonesty by others can be downright humiliating. But is dishonesty simply a way of life in a dog-eat-dog kind of world? Are there still honesty examples out there?

Honesty is when you act, speak, and think in a truthful way. So, to understand honesty, you have to understand the concept of truth. Lies are so easy to swallow sometimes, and the truth may seem to cost you, especially when you have to admit you’ve been wrong or that you are to blame. 

In daily life, truth is a guiding principle when you have been raised and instilled with integrity. In the Biblical sense, the truth will set you free. When you are truthful, you will say things exactly as they happened, even if that costs you.
