Ok. Now what has the lightbulb got to do with truth? Actually have you ever heard of the saying "The truth will come to light one day" A lightbulb is a source of light :]
Truth is the conformity to fact or actuality. As women of integrity, we should not tell lies. But I agree that during some circumstances we do tell lies. And those kind of lies are white lies. To me, I find white lies acceptable. Friends should be honest to each other. For example, your friend's father died in an accident and she doesn't knows that. Would you tell her the truth or lie to her that her father is perfectly fine. Even though the truth may hurts, sometime it is better to tell the truth than let your friend continue living the lie.
Here are some quotations about truth. Enjoy :]
The truth shall make you free.
- - - Bible, John 8:32
Honesty is the rarest wealth anyone can possess, and yet all the honesty in the world ain't lawful tender for a loaf of bread.
- - - Josh Billings
The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. Ignorance may deride it. But in the end, there it is.
- - - Winston Churchill
Truth is completely spontaneous. Lies have to be taught.
- - - Richard Buckminster Fuller Jr.
ReflectionsHow can we be a truthful person?
Firstly we must speak the truth even though it may hurt.
Secondly, we will not tell lies or cheat
Thirdly, we will have the humility to admit our mistakes.
