Truth Is Beautiful, But So Are Lies

‘Truth is beautiful, without doubt; but so are lies.’

~Ralph Waldo Emerson

The truth is a beautiful thing.  Whether a person has good intentions or not, the truth is still the truth.  That will never change.  Unfortunately, lies can be just as beautiful.  It’s all about what we choose to believe.  Sometimes a lie is much easier to believe since it masks the pain of the truth, but needless to say, the pain associated with the lie can, and will, hurt more and for a longer period of time.   

Don’t be deceived by a beautiful web of lies. It may look good to you, but trust me, it’s never good for you.  Opt for the truth, which is sometimes beautiful, and sometimes the ugliest thing you could imagine.  At the end of the day, it’s still the truth.
