Not always. Being too real is not good. Believe it or not, people need some fantasy/lies in their lives. Just the way society works I guess.

A female reader, MissKin United Kingdom +, writes (1 April 2008):

MissKin agony auntI hate the idea that the truth is best. The truth is great. There is no better thing than the truth.

This isn't a question either but never mind.

I think the truth stinks. How much better is blissful ignorance to informed pain? How much better is smiling because things are great, than crying because really they're not?

Sometimes truth is best, yes, but if everyone told the truth all the time the world would fall apart, everyone would hate everybody else and things would hurt far too much. I'd rather certain people kept many things to themselves. If it's not necessary to say, but is still the truth, keep it. I don't want it.

The truth.. who even knows what the truth really is anyway?

I agree, but society is not based on the truth. The truth will not always set you free.
