I could see that each day goes differently for each individual. But I had seen that majority of people would tell a lie either as joke, unknowingly, serious or may be for any other reasons at least once in a week. Even a simple lie to just make others happy, satisfied or may be to be oneself better. I am sure that there would no normal human being who has crossed their teenage without telling a lie. May be I would intentionally try to day onwards at least not to tell any lie for at least 5 days a month.

I respect your good attitude SHAMRACK and it's sort of peace of mind. Lie for positive outcome especially for good life learning process called myth. Lie for negative results, I mean jeopardize another party called falsity. Lie to undercover oneself or third party for called alibi.
PROVISIONAL OF LIE
Unfortunately, today's world with world wide web drives netizens into "lie circle of life". Simple and small proof; username, password, avatar; which all the representative elements. What I can see, the true statements everywhere we go in this world are time, date, & day; in which 99.99% from world population never lie.
NO LIE NO SHY
I venerate your wish to have lie-free-life, because it's a positive life development which produce the power of truth in life's effect and affect. The gargantuan faculty of total energy glory our internal and external life. Where, shy is a wasted energy from it.

Sometimes I tell lies as a stupid jokes too, it is just for fun, I don't tell lies that hurt people or it will have a big negative consequence.

I must admit that I am amoung those who consider themselves the unperfect person. I lie and I have been doing it for many years though I know that It is very bad to do so. I cannot let myself when I am lying, sometimes I lie for funny things and sometimes for something which can prevent my previous lie to crop up. So I will try very hard to do npt lie for 4 days in a month. I will start with this number, if I can then I will not lie for 6 days.

I'm guilty of doing that too. I tend to lie to keep from hurting someone's feeling mostly. I guess truthfully I am more concerned that they will get mad at me if I tell them the truth. I tend to do it without thinking. I have been trying to stop that cause I know its still a lie regardless of the reason. Sometimes I lie when I'm joking too. Usually its a big exaggeration so the person will know I'm just joking....hopefully

hello sharmrack, you are right, I just read from newspaper the other day, that averagely man would tell 6 lies a day while women tell 3 lies a day. I think that maybe not true, but just let us admit that people do telling lies without concious. A man who is very angry or feel very depressed, when being asked by his colleague :"are you okay", he is more likely to say"yeah, I am fine". This is a lie...but he may not noticed that this is a lie...
