Truth frees our conscience. You need to stand by it.

...so my friend, if by telling a lie you save the life of an innocent still you will tell the truth? Please, refer to what the poem says and not to matters that I do not mention!

Back to look at your 1702nd dearest Demetrios. And I totally agree it too much of what may be a good thing, is counterproductive if administered in excess...Maria xx

Yes sometimes the truth hurts. The right amount at the right time lessons the pain of being honest. Consideration and careful thought before being truthful is necessary to avoid hurting someone. Truthful words written here Demetrios. A 7 my friend.

My friend, Michael you don't know how many times it has cost me dearly to be honest. I even lost my job more than once because of my honesty! Thank you for your understanding! God be with you!

Hello Demetrios, This Monoku is spot-on for sure. (Sometimes, it doesn't hurt to have a couple of shots of Whiskey in this process too!!) Cheers and Best, Gary
