Life is messy. What makes it worse is people can't be honest with those they love. Truth hurts.

If friends or family tell you the truth and it hurts you. Before you get angry at them. Think. It hurts them to hurt you. They have tossed it around in their heads. Should I or shouldn't I? What would I want? Is the pain of me telling them going to save them even more pain in the future? Should I just let them find out on their own? They have lost sleep trying to decide. Doing the right thing really sucks sometime. Yes, you may lose the person. But they will survive and so will you.

Being honest is the hardest thing to learn. But its also the best. You find real friends, family and people in general easier. Because the respect the truth. You weed out the people that you don't want in your life.

Be honest with yourself. Your not perfect. Some of your words and actions can hurt someone.

Be honest about what you want from someone, just remember it goes both ways.
