Transparency is a condition of having nothing to hide, look through and total truthfulness on an issues. It's eye-through and full sincerity in deals and businesses. Transparency is the fact, reality and openness of a situation to the concerned people. In a more layman terms, it's "I can see it" nothing to hide, the nudity of contract and an operation, devoid of lies, pretence, eye and leap services. Transparency is the refusal to deceive someone, been truthful and honest, plain and practical nothing to sweep under the carpet on people concerned.

What is your opinion on the need for transparency in marriage and other relationships.

It's of immeasurable importance, the need of been transparent. Transparency depicts trust, love, sincerity, honesty and integrity. Transparency brings about continuity, development, workability, and successful management. In marriages, transparency devices an appetite for helping one another, since it's a pool of trust and reliability. If wife is transparent and the husband too, it means they are truthful to each other, and there is trust among them which brings huge understanding and such marriage or relationships last unbreakable forever.

In a case whereby one party finds out the other persons keeping secrets, what do you think should be done?

Yes, is for the next person not to follow in suite, because what is wrong, does not last. But let him or her keep been transparent, one day the second person will end up even lying to himself or herself and your continuity been transparent, is the only weapon, you can use to win and defeat the next person who is insincere. But if you give up by behaving same way, it will worsen the situation. Remember, lies, has no system and procedures, it has no direction and eyes and this is why the truth overcomes even though it takes some times.

Have you ever been in a relationship that lacked transparancy?If yes, What did you do? But If no, what would you do?

Yes! I continued like I advised above and the truth was revealed when my hit was too much. Because truth has system, and eyes, I never find it difficult to say it but to her, it takes her a lot of energy and brain cracking, to lie to me. So I bombarded her with my usual sincerity and in the end she took after me, though the truth she tried to hide was painful one, and she knew if she should review it to me, I would not accept our relationship. But no matter how long it takes, the truth must surface, so if she had known, she should had received to me so that the pain will be less. So, I overcame with consistency in the game of this transparency.

Can truth be hidden forever ?

Never!!! it only takes time because lies has no system and procedures but full of fugery and painful pretence, the day the pain becomes unbearable, the truth surfaces because truth has system, methods, procedures and doesn't furge. So truth can be Intimidated, bullied and hidden but it's for a while, it shall surface with bold step. Therefore truth can not be hidden for ever.

Thank you so much this is my take on this contest and invite my friends @josepha, @ruthjoe and @petface.
