It has been said and said again.  Myths and legends have been written about it. It makes up an important part of religious texts and our great-grandparents lived by the words well their words. You said what you meant, you meant what you said, and if you said you were going to do it you did it.

It has become a very disappointing reality when people are surprised that you actually follow through with what you said you were going to do. How sad it is that the internet has created a world where people can just talk and talk and talk and there are little to no consequences. Bullies, liars, scammers, frauds, and what has been termed catfish all because you no longer have to look someone in the eyes while you lie.

How hard it must be to keep up with all the lies. Little white lies, big fat lies, and downright dirty lies all add up.

Is it all really really worth it? Do the lies add up to a happy success. Really when it comes right down to it your word is still your bond and honesty really is best. Little white lies only make you feel better in the moment. Big ones keep you dancing around remembering. And the dirty ones make a mess of your life and it’s only a matter of time before they will. So the next time you’re considering telling those lies really think about the consequences of your words and whether or not you want to live by them.
