Truth VS Honesty

The two words may sound similar, but they aren't. One would say or might think that telling the truth is being honest OR being honest mean you have to tell the truth, their perception is correct as per their paradigm. To my understanding both are not just words, one is value and another is fact. There are some values that you are born with and few are acquired with passage of time. But in my experience, you are born with them. Since, values could be associated for self or for another, which largely depend how you perceive them. However, truth remains a fact and it is always bitter.

Honesty is reflected when something is done or said for others with purest intentions. It largely covers doing good to and for others. I have often heard people saying: Honestly, I feel like this, Honestly, I think that... It is more about how you think about people and situation from your perspective. Honesty, is an emotion, which may or may not change in due course of time depending on the situation. For example if you honestly make someone happy then you would go any length even lie or fabricate things or cook thinks up that aren't there to make someone happy, smile or laugh.

Truth, it is the fact. Telling the truth is as hard as accepting it. Truth is not dependent on any factor, it will not lead you a happy life, you will not be accepted for telling the truth, you will be spending a lot of time by yourself like me writing this blog or doing any other activity of choice. But, it will definitely lead you a peaceful life, your subconscious would be at peace for saying truth. The cost of saying truth is too much.

You will be accepted for being Honest, not for being Truthful. Choose wisely.
