The doctrines of morality has been screeching for ages saying "truth shall always triumph". I wonder though if there remains any truth in this saying! Does speaking the truth really resolve all problems in life or does it bake fresh ones? Although, the answer to the question can vary for individuals, I think, it is better to bend the truth rather than spilling out the factuals.
My varied acquiantances have got me closer to people whose lives justify the concept of bending the truth to be blissful. A typical analogy can be this one; a friend of mine whose husband is in army and is posted in the cold mountains of Kashmir finds herself attracted to a colleague in her office. There remains no guesses that one fine day my friend finds herself crossing her boundaries to satiate her physical desires with her colleague! She develops no emotional intimacy with her colleague except for the momentary surge in her pleasure-churning-hormones. Although, this matter of truth is known to me, will she ever be able to spill the truth to her husband? I think, hiding or bending the truth if confronted by her husband would be a better option for her marital bliss.
I read somewhere that it is always better to let your mysteries (read "TRUTH") die naturally with time. Not all truths can lead you to triumphs; it's even better to hide it if you can't bend it!! Isn't this true or do I sound brewing a vice called, CHEATING?
