Honesty Honestly

We are always told to be honest. We have it drilled into our brains when we are children. We are told that it is always best to be honest.

This is a LIE.

People always say that they want the honest truth, but they cannot handle it. Even if they say they can handle the truth no matter what it is deep inside they know they really can not. People only want the truth if they feel that it would benefit them by knowing. However, people typically settle for not knowing out of fear of knowing. People would rather face the lie and live through it than have to deal with the possibility of a disappointing truth. No person can truly handle pure honesty without having regrets about knowing the truth.
