Yeah!
"The truth will set you free... but first it will piss you off!"
I realize it's an overused cliché, but I have always found it easier to tell the truth because then there's nothing I have to "remember" in order to maintain an illusion for someone's benefit. As you said, though, it can be tricky... people like honesty UNTIL they happen to be on the receiving end of something less-than-glamorous about their reality.
Great post!
cliché or not... its the truth! haha... :) (I can see all sorts of humour driven comments coming out of this one...lol) - Thank you for the awesome feedback xxx
LOL, Denmarkguy. I've never seen that saying before, but I love it: The truth will set you free ... but first it will piss you off! SO-O-O-O-O true (no pun intended).
