What if you lie about something to save someone 's feeling being hurt? My little sister growing up had a goldfish. One day we had went on a vacation to texas and we didn’t take it with us of course, but we did let our very much trusted neighbor have a key to our home so they could go and feed my little sisters pet. Two weeks later we came home and the fish was upside, of course i didn’t want her to be sad so I told my parents so they let me and my older sister go by Wal-Mart to go get a cheap fish that looks the same as the other.

The Ways We Lie “A lie may take care of the present, but it has no future…” - Anonymous. You lie, I lie, everyone does, but why; don’t people know that in the long run it will only hurt us? People lie all the time, for many different reasons, to keep out of trouble, to get someone else in trouble, to save others, to get something, etc., but all eventually leads to the opposite of what they wanted.
