Can anyone out there tell me

Hi Chris, Many people feel that by telling the truth, it will affect there status in society.... But they dont know that by lying once they have to lie more in future.... But if anyone lies for helping someone, which is right than it is acceptable.... Sometimes when we lie we are hiding the reality in order to keep ourself safe, but we dont know how it will affect afterwards........ And it is hard to tell truth as we are not ready to face the situation and by lying we dont have to face much and we can escape from hatred of the society
