We often hear and read this famous quote “Honesty is the best policy”. What is it for? Why are people trying to pronounce and mark this quote? Like it or not, somehow at a certain point, we come across this one. If we analyze its meaning, honesty is telling the truth. It is very simple and clear. Honesty is being sincere, truthful, trustworthy, honorable, fair, genuine, and loyal with integrity. It is a very simple behavior for anyone who wants to live a happy life. If you are honest with yourself, you feel and react without guilt. You accept your responsibility and don’t blame others. We avoid the consequences of some mistakes and sometimes we blame other people. This is so wrong. Be honest with your feelings. Telling a lie will definitely not help you. If you are thinking of lying, try thinking about the consequences later. Could you take the result of doing it? Some people will believe you, but you cannot hide the truth.

You are honest when you hand over a wallet full of money that you found. Don’t be a “seeker’s keeper.” Give up something that is lost and encourage others to do the same. The truth is that it is not yours. It is not yours. Find a way to return the wallet. Try to think about the feelings of the person who lost it. You really need it to buy food, pay your monthly bills, pay your kids’ school tuition, and the like. If you put the situation in your own place, what will you do? This question is so simple, yet it will clear your mind how honest you are in every situation. One thing that we must not forget when it comes to honesty, the way we express our feelings without anger, without blaming others, without exaggerating, without hurting someone else’s feelings. This is the spirit of truth to put honesty into action. In this way, we are proud to say that honesty echoes in the hearts of all people. Be honest even if others are not because you will take the initiative to be an example for them.

It is a fact that some people are honest and others are not. They are honest simply because they tell the truth and are committed to doing and honoring it. A person becomes more sincere if he puts honesty into action. There are multiple reasons why we should tell the truth. First, telling the truth allows everyone to learn from what happened. Second, telling the truth protects innocent people from being blamed or punished. So telling the truth helps decrease the chances of misunderstandings, conflict, and confusion. Finally, telling the truth makes you feel safe and at peace inside. In short, be honest.
