HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY.
The proverb Honesty is the best policy means that we have to be honest and true in life even
in bad situations. This proverb is said by the famous person Benjamin Franklin. He regarded
honesty as the best tool for a successful life. Honesty is the backbone of the successful
relationships. Those who tell lies to their near and dear ones face bad situations in life. One
must be loyal and speak truth at every walk of life and in all dealings. Honesty, loyalty and
truthfulness provide the peace of mind. It is observed that an honest and truthful person
always leads happy life. Honesty is the builder of stronger and durable relationship.
Whereas, on the other hand the dishonest people lose their respect in family as well as in
the society. One who lies ruins the relationships and loses the trust of the people. Honesty
is a weapon which always helps us conquer in every walk of life. Honesty always benefits
us. People who always prefer telling truth can build reliable relationships and can build a
better world to live peacefully. Speaking truth helps us in strengthening our character and
makes us strong.
