Do not beat around the bush.

Have you ever come across a person who wishes to tell you something but they just wont say it without lying about it so as to make it sound better that it really is?? I guess the best thing is to just say the truth because you wont need to start hiding or trying to justify the lie. Whatever the recepient thinks about it should not really worry you because the fact remains true. It is the truth no matter how bad it sounds. One of my friends felt that by giving me a lift, people were mistaking and disrespecting him, and I knew that by listening between the words of what he had said earlier. He then came up with a story to keep me at bay which I accepted without comments but I knew the real reason. By mere coincidence, my prior mental conclusion was confirmed and it left me feeling bad that all said and done, this person couldnt just tell me the truth. It wouldnt have hurt as much as it did after realizing that the person was lying to me. Let's just learn to treat others as we wish to be treated. Straight forward and to the point, I guess I can handle the bitter truth better than I can a sweet lie.

Openess.

I have learnt with time that the way to every person's heart is being truthful and being able to communicate with them from your heart. Pretext doesn't go far and as soon as it is detected, it creates distrust. On the other hand, truth flows and is consistent and it does not imprison someone to taking caution. It is the same just as the Bible puts it, 'yesterday, today and forever'.

The lesson Number two that life has taught me is that you get as much as you give, or even more. I will quote the bible once more and say,there is more blessings in giving than receiving. Those two aspects of life make a person very successful, knowledgeable and likeable.
