Must one ever be honest?

Must one never lie?

'The truth' and 'the lie' are
enemies to each other?

Honesty will be the best policy!
No doubt in it!

Then what about the lie?

Let us not lie:

if others get irritated;

if it wounds others;

if it complicates the things;

if it does nothing good to others;

if it self boosts;

if it is unnecessary;

if it embarrasses;

if it is intolerable.

And also, let us not lie,
at any cost,
particularly to
The Lord!

Let us lie:

if others get pleased;

if it solves the complications;

if it does good to others;

if it motivates others;

if it is necessary.

Let us lie, to be honest for others!

Let us lie, to be honest for ourselves!

Let us lie,
to be honest!
