Why do we lie? Sometimes we lie because we don't want anyone to know the truth about something. sometimes we lie so we don't hurt other peoples feelings. Sometimes we lie so that we can gain someone trust (I know that sounds weird but it is true!). Lying is something we were taught not to do, but if everyone told the truth the world would be in chaos. Because, for example if someone walked up to a military officer and asked them to tell them all of the millitary secrets then they would have to. Also (this is from a movie called liar liar I think) if your mother sister ect. Asked you "Do I look good in this dress?" you would have to tell the truth, or what you think is the truth in this case, and sometimes that person is not going to like the truth. I think that all the lying and all the truth in the world cancels each other out. A good mix of truth and lies. I honestly hadn't seen Sophies page when I wrote this. Just to let every one know I didn't copy her work!


 * “If the everyone believed in an eye for an eye the world would be blind”-Quote from Mother Teressa **
 * I think the way you can slot that quote into the topic of “TRUTH” is because we learn from our mistakes in the way knowing when to tell the truth and knowing when to withhold the truth. (My own idea) **


 * Everyone is a genius. But if you judge a fish on its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid. (Mrs Bradley) **
