Ruin Relationships, Families, Friendships, Yourself.
Is there really such a thing as a white lie? Can lies EVER be for the better? And If there is such a thing as a "White Lie", Where is the line of a white lie, and a black lie anyway?
If you tell your best-friend that "No, love, that skirt looks gorgeous on you" while you're thinking "Oh My Word, how did your ass grow so big by just being put in a bloody skirt?" to save her feelings while the rest of the room is thinking " Whoever sang that song 'I like big butts' can't be bloody serious!". Is that a white lie? Are you saving her feelings?
How about when your alkoholic grandfather says "No hon, I don't drink much anymore, This is light beer sweetheart", When you even as a 8 year old can smell the alkohol from of him and he is sitting in the rain with sunglasses. Is that a white lie? Saving his grandchild of the dissapointment?
Where does it stop?
I mean a lie is a lie.
The truth is the truth.
Is there ever a Black and White Truth?
"Yeah, your butt is huge, but I hardly noticed!" Can you ever say anything like that?
Either it looks huge or not!
Either it's a lie or it's not.
I mean, yes you can avoid telling the whole truth, but you don't have to replace it with a lie.
"I Only drink light-beer now."
"Oh what a tangled web we weave,
When first we practise to deceive!"
