We were taught since we were little children that it was not right to lie.But when we spoke the truth for example,"grandma why do you have that big black thing on your face?" We were told not to say that because that is rude. Then as soon as that annoying friend of your mom or dad calls we are told to tell them we are not home. then we are taught its alright to tell a white lie.Or its o.k. to tell half truths as long as it doesn't hurt anyone.And now days every movie out has some kind of lie based script.More so in comedy's.So its a big joke.So a person trying to make friends will lie.Because its not hurting anyone,so they think.Once you start lying its a hard habit to break.Its like adrug,they don't even have a reason to lie any more.Its just done just to be doing something.And last but not least people will believe a lie quicker than the truth.Its a sad state of affair.
