According to a common saying, “Honesty is the best policy.”But in daily life, honesty can be difficult.Lying often seems like a good way to impress people or avoid blame for mistakes.1But besides all this, honesty really is worth the effort.

One clear reason for honesty is that lies are difficult to hide because they are harder to remember than the truth.If you make up a story, you have to remember all the details.2But if you promise to tell the truth, you will never have trouble remembering.This saves you effort and makes conversations less stressful for you.

3People who believe your lies might make bad decisions because of them.And a lie about someone else could destroy that person's good name.On a personal level, if your friends find out you lied to them, their feelings will be hurt.They will question whether they can trust you or wonder whether you care about them.

On the other hand, if you always tell the truth, you will develop your good name for honesty. 4Business deals,friendship, family and romantic relationships all depend on trust.

Honesty, however, doesn't mean that you have to say everything you think.5When you do that, you will feel more relaxed and enjoy stronger relationships.

A.This will help you in every area of your life.

B.Another clear reason to avoid lying is that lying can harm others.

C.And the more lies you tell, the more stories you have to remember.

D.Some people lie out of habit, without even realizing they're doing it.

E.Sometimes it's best to remain silent if your words might hurt someone else.
