A Half Truth is A Slippery Slope

“Half a truth is often a great lie.”

Benjamin Franklin, American Statesman  

 

As I see it. . . . . . . .

 

A half truths is a slippery slope

 

You are either a person that speaks the truth or you are not. There are no half truths there is no in-between you either tell the truth or you don’t.

 

When you pave the path of success journey with integrity you pave the way for a bright and successful future. People will judge you as a person of character and someone that they can count on.

 

When someone attempts to tell a half truth they are flat out telling a lie.

 

A lie creates a path full of potholes and makes for a very bumpy journey with very little or no progress. A half truth is a slippery slope that moves a person very quickly in the wrong direction. The person who tells a half truth will be judged as someone to be avoided. 

 

The path we decide to follow is a choice; choose the path of truths and integrity.

 

There are no half truths or partial lie, it’s either the truths or it’s not. Be a person of character and speak the truth and you will never have to look over your shoulder.   

 

A half truths is a slippery slope that takes the person on a downhill spiral.

Lou, my father always has said "when you tell the truth you don't have to remember what you said".

Lou, I hope that this post is not motivated by a recent unpleasant experience. Half-truths can be very difficult to deal with until you figure them out.

Sometimes the silence is deafening from a 1/2 truth. Benjamin Franklin truly knew what he was talking about...

When it comes to truth, the choice is only black or white! Nice to know that Ben's words still ring true today! Enjoy your day!
