The best policy...

Lying – noun: the telling of lies, or false statements; untruthfulness.

This has been the most annoying and irritating thing I have dealt with this last year. I am the mother of 3 adult children, I have, in the past, asked if someone drew on the wall and was told no. I asked again, stating that I knew someone was lying. Guess what, it took a few more times asking and I learned who did it. So, here is my thought. I get it, we all have lied in our past, maybe as a child, a teen, even as an adult. Man, it really gets under my skin when I have known someone lied to me and  that something was askew and then find out that there have been MANY MANY times that the truth would have been a better choice, even an easier choice. I have no use or desire to be around any adult who thinks that lying is their best option.

Let’s do this, when you choose to be dishonest it makes you an ugly and undesirable person. Oh, and about 90% of the time someone has lied to me I have known that I was being lied to! So, here is what I am getting at. You, and you know who you are, I knew you were lying and now I really don’t like you because of it. Try, just try being honest instead. Life is much easier when you aren’t trying to keep track of your lies.
