And when I am honest I am automatically humble. -- Hugh Prather
I have just spent some time with some favorite girls. Here we are being honest. Honesty Boxes are a way of collecting funds for goods sold and trusting that people will in fact be honest.
My honesty in the past has been rejected and summed up as I am telling fanciful stories. I have had a bit of a life to date. Done a lot of things I think others actually haven't and with those experiences comes a level of responsibility down the track to be honest about it.
Honesty is supposed to free one of the burden of secrecy. It can be a burden at times. To be honest with yourself and others is all one can do to keep a handle on the world. White lies told to children ie the tooth faerie and Santa Clause are well intentioned forgivable lies.
Believing the incredulous things that I have managed to survive is not my responsibility to the said truth. Some of it isn't altogether pretty, however it is honest. Some of it was very pretty and an awful lot of fun, ie The Miss Australia Quest", that was funny!
I cannot help what others think. Even what my children think is out of my control. However what others think at times is quite laughable as they fill in the gaps with lies when they are not informed. Somehow some of these join the dots lies are very destructive and so the people involved will face the Karma of the situation accordingly.
Not sure if they are entirely ready for that... Regardless though it will be just a matter of time I guess now.
