Honesty

Thomas Jefferson , one of the giants in american history,
said, "Honesty is the first chapter in the book of
wisdom."

When you look around us in all walks of life media,
government, business, medicine, and even religion
there are small adjustments, outright fabrications,
deceit, deliberate lying, dishonesty and on...and on...
and so forth.

Then we wonder why things aren't working.
For one thing we don't know whom to believe or
trust.  It erodes what the late Dr. Stephen Covey
used to call the emotional bank account and not only
are we overdrawn financially but we're overdrawn
there as well.

The emotional bank account runs on trust. Knowing
you can believe what the other person is telling you.
Each time you find out they've been dishonest it eats away
at the fabric of truth causing a split that can grow bigger
and wider over time.

There needs to be a call , which I'm attempting now,
to return to an age when a man or woman's word was their
bond. That we speak the truth and stop scheming and knifing
trying to trick others for our gain. Or like they, who ever they are,
tell it straight allowing us to make wise decisions from the data
we're receiving.

This needs to be a joint effort after all the truth can set you free!
