The Truth Hurts
Everyone tells lies at some point of time in life. Some lies are blatant lies with intention to hurt, to deceive and to gain from the lies. Some lies are so called “white lies” to protect or to ease an embarrassing situation. Sometimes lies are everywhere so much so that people get used to them and happy to accept them as normal, because the truth hurts. Sometimes, the more people try to cover the truth, the worse the situation becomes. So there are more lies.
Beneath the superficial portraying of feeling, we know that everyone wants the truth. The basic desire of a human being is to demand truth in the form of transparency and accountability. Truth can be ensured with proper systems and process, through freedom of speech and more important through our inner good nature. The truth might hurt, but desire for truth can never be extinguished.
