Rather than love, than money, than fame, give me truth.

Naoko Miyoshi

I completely disagree with this sentence. People want to be happy, and If someone has to be unhappy when he or she hears the truth, I think that person doesn’t want to hear the truth. In this world, there are good truths and bad truths, but both are the truth. Actually I can’t say what the good truth is or the bad truth, but I think we have the right to choose to hear the truth or not. For example, If your boyfriend or girlfriend cheat on you, do you want your boyfriend or girlfriend to tell you the truth? If I were someone’s girlfriend, of course I wouldn’t want him to cheat on me, however if he did, I wouldn’t want him to tell me the truth, I would want him to deceive me as long as he could. This is my opinion. But on the other hand, one of my friends said that I wouldn’t want him to hide the truth, If he cheated on me, I would want him to tell me the truth. She thinks the truth is the most important thing to know, even If it makes her sad or it hurts her. I think she is very strong, but unfortunately, I’m not so strong as her.

Sometimes I want to know the truth but I don’t want to know the truth. It’s really difficult to describe my mind. In conclusion, I think there are so many people with different opinions, so we should choose whether we want to know the truth or not.

  1. wow~ this is a very hard topic i think. because sometime we need to lie. for example, if your friend is quite sensitive, you have to lie to he or she sometimes. because it's the only way to protect them.

    but at the most time, the truth is absolutely important!!!:p

  2. in that case, i would prefer my boyfriend to tell me the truth. it's good for him, for the other girl and for me. sometimes it is much harder to accept the truth when you find out you are being deceived for a long time.

  3. that is quite surprising for me Naoko, that you want your friend to lie on you if he betrays you. But what would you do? Would you tell him?

  4. Sometimes truth makes us sad but -in my point of view- it's better to be sad an hour than to be sad all the life.
