Speaking Truth

In our life we must communicate with people by way of conversation. Sometime people will ask us about private affairs which we do not like to say, but on the hand, we also do not like to speak lie. In such case, it is better to keep silence and say nothing which needs our little tactic to handle the situation.
Mark Twain once said: “If you are speaking truth, you don’t have to remember anything.” It is, of course, right that when we say some lies, we will be unable to remember what we have said.
Some people are not serious about what they have said. They just say anything without responsibility and therefore, are unable to win trust from people. Those are the persons who are always at the edge of door of failure.
We must be a decent human. Once we have said anything we must fulfill at any cost even the road ahead is rough and difficult. If we have determined to go forward, the road will be smooth and easy, much easier than we predict.
Therefore, we must speak truth fundamentally, but we have to use our wisdom how to speak to the people we meet. We need to learn the tactic, or we shall be a fool if we speak truth to everybody. There are good human and bad human in the society and it surely requires our wisdom to distinguish good or bad, otherwise we shall suffer in our life one way or another.
