Honesty is always the best policy because when the truth comes out the very fact that everyone knows you told an untruth is embarrassing to say the least.
Sometimes to make more interesting, A story being told, Some folks will try to enhance it, To make it sound more bold. Sometimes when we're relating, An experience one's had, Certain things are added, To enhance the good or bad. Often when retelling, Some newsy bit of info, A supposition can slip in. The story changes, bingo. Whether to make it exciting, To help or hinder tried, It isn't simple embellishment. The truth is that you lied.
