My Thoughts About Honesty

By Peter

Honesty is a personal trait or a characteristic. It is better to be described as plainly telling the truth. Honesty is important because being honest has its own rewards and faults. It makes you feel good and takes the guilt in your heart away. Honesty also affects your relationship with others like your family and friends. When you tell the truth it makes them happy or sad. It is better to let it out than living with the guilt because it can hunt you.

You can apply it when you are confronting your parents as their son/daughter. You should tell the truth because they could understand. It will make them less mad than hiding something. Also, honesty can be applied as a student because it helps you with your teacher. For example, when you didn’t have enough time to do your homework it’s better tell him/her the truth than making an excuse. I’m honest to my parents and friends for example, I failed my test but I told my mom and dad about it. With my friends, I was honest when one time, I left my assigned project at home and they counted on me to bring it. So, I told them the truth that I left it at home. I’m honest sometimes, because it’s hard to tell the truth when you are under peer pressure.

My conclusion is honesty is the best policy.
