telling.the.truth

some times its better to speak lie bec. telling truth may lead to unwanted consequences. but one should tell truth bec. it lead to long success.

As I know that the truth can be told all the time, I think that people would learn tact. Telling the truth does not mean hurting others in the process. I read more than most people and in some of my fantasy book the truth is always told but it makes the speakers think before speaking because in these same books the characters live several hundred years and grudges are held when feeling get hurt, therefore they learn to speak the truth without causing pain. I know this is not a perfect wolrd and people do not always tell the truth, many do it because they know what they are thinking will hurt others or cause anger. Would it not be better to look into our mind before we speak and look for something truthful, but positive or at the least constructive to say. Being truthful does not mean blurting out the first thing that comes to mind.
