Day 110: Honesty

Hi again,
Today I am thankful for Honesty. I believe honesty is the best policy and sometimes it may hurt at first but it is better knowing than not knowing at all. Too often I think people are not honest because they feel they are protecting someone's feelings but often I think it doesn't do the person any good to not know. Also being honest can save a person a big headache of having to confess something later on. An honest person is also easier to trust and you are able to trust an honest person. A person who isn't being honest sometimes seems to be holding something back and I don't know what it is so I have a hard time trusting them. I love people who are honest and say it like it is and you never have to second guess what they are thinking or saying. That is so nice. Sometimes it can be difficult to be around a person like that because they don't sugar coat things but at least you know where they stand and they won't lie to you because they think it's better than telling you the truth. I would rather have a person tell me I look bad in something than to have the person say nothing to spare my feelings and then I look bad with out knowing it. Or if I am being hurtful and I don't know that I am because no one wants to say anything-I rather someone be honest and tell me that I am so I can fix it. It may hurt initially but at least I will be aware of what I am doing or not doing and can change. I do love honest people. So that is why I am thankful for honesty.
