Friends - are you not amazed at the small amounts of money some people will steal - people who lie about any small thing - and do not feel guilty of it...
Some people will sell their integrity for a pittance. To those individuals, dishonest behavior is not an occasional occurrence -- it is a way of life.
Those who lie about insignificant things or steal trivial amounts of money will develop the habit of lying and stealing.
As you look back on your own behavior, can you do so with pride in the knowledge that you have always been honest?
If you cannot, perhaps it is time to think about the times when you chose dishonest behavior.
Why did you do it?
Was it worth it?
Wouldn't the consequences of being honest and truthful have been far better in those circumstances?
Learn from your mistakes and vow that from this day forward you will always be honest.
Start being honest with yourself.
You are either honest or dishonest. There can be no compromise between the two.
