it has occurred to me that sometimes you don't know the whole story. It has also occurred to me that sometimes the story may have more than one version. If those versions all come from the same person, who also happens to be the origin of the story. If that person tells different versions of their story to different people, which one are you supposed to believe? You have to consider their motives for telling each person the version they give. The reason for telling one person a story might be that they've had a bit of alcohol and are telling you the truth. Another version might come about because they are trying to impress a certain person, or maybe they're just telling that person what they want to hear, or what would be acceptable to that person. There may come a time when the two versions of the same story meet. And it may come out that there are two versions of the same story. Is trying to impress someone really worth what's going to happen when that person finds out you lied? And what if the version you told to said person was the truth? how will they know? It begs the question, at which point does exaggerating become lying? Wouldn't it just be easier to tell everyone the truth and let destiny take it's course? Or perhaps give each person to make a decision/judgement based on the truth, as opposed to a version of the truth. Or maybe this is all just a big ball of confusion. Either way, it all boils down to one thing that you learned when you were little: honesty is the best policy. always
