I learnt a very important virtue some days back, and this is the only time I got to write about it from my very toxic and hectic schedule at work. Since Gadget prompted me that very essential question, I realized overtime that honesty should always be bestowed to people who are worth it. I value honesty as much as you do. It was borne of respect and admiration for the Gadget Guy why I decided to confide and I was not mistaken with the person I chose to unveil. (Gadget, you owe me a comment to this one! Hahaha!). Some months before I remember I had written something about TRUST:
“I lost someone's TRUST after college let out. It was a comforting TRUST from someone who thought that just because I wasn't open to having his arms around me, it was already equivalent to NOT TRUSTING. That loss equated to losing him as well which up until today, I regret. However, where it ended, it did not mean a completely closed book. A chapter has just come full circle for the next to unfold. Which is why, you see, for a TRUST lost is a TRUST built. Because I believe I have learned what I needed to realize, the lesson in that experience, to move on and embrace the remaining bits of my life and those that are yet to come into it. I have lost TRUST many times unimaginable in my life, but so long as I have the TRUST that really matters, nothing else is insurmountable.”
So tell me, how do you define HONESTY? Let me know…

Honesty is not my strongest side and some times it`s easier to lie. ;)
Honesty is just being yourself, true to yourself, your words, in your action and most espcially coupled with the sincerest intention in everything you do, be it in friendship or beyond the bonds of friendship.
honesty is transparency. As I always tell you, you will know people by their fruits.
in honesty, you might hurt other people...
that is why some people lies, so they cant hurt the feelings of others, specailly those whom you love and those peolpe who are close to you...
so it is your choice...
to be honest all the way or not...
