If you search for tenderness
It isn't hard to find
You can have the love you need to live
But if you look for truthfulness
You might just as well be blind
It always seems to be so hard to give...
Honesty is such a lonely word
Everyone is so untrue
Honesty is hardly ever heard
And mostly what I need from you.
I can always find someone
To say they sympathize
If I wear my heart out on my sleeve
But I don't want some pretty face
To tell me pretty lies
All I want is someone to believe...

As Billy Joel sings, is Honesty such a lonely word? Does Honesty live only in the dictionary? I know that no one can be 100% honest to another (and it would be too unrealistic an expectation), but I think when you really love and care for someone, it's not that hard to be 100% honest. That's one thing I can 'honestly' be :) When I mean Honesty here, it doesn't mean honesty in every little circumstance... what I mean is being honest about your friendship, love and respect to another. It's not such a luxury to ask for, is it? Then why is Honesty the hardest thing to find? I have been cheated, walked all over, lied to, laughed at, back-stabbed, betrayed, taken for granted but on any of those occassions I have not failed the test of honesty. Talk to yourself...ask yourself if you're being true to yourself? 'Cos that's when you can be true to others too. You could be staying in a relationship for the sake of it, putting on airs just to look cool, hurting others only because you don't want to see yourself hurt by the truth etc. But you know what, truth may hurt, but lies scar. The best thing you can ever do is to be honest and come out with it - it may be stormy but after the rain, God gave a rainbow...
I'm sure many of you too may have found that Honesty is not such an easy thing to find in people. It's like coming across a mirage...so real yet so unreal...so close yet so far...so inviting yet so discouraging...so beautiful yet so lonely. But honesty when found is like a rare and precious Diamond that can never be stolen - once acquired it will stay with you forever and the magic, light and wealth it brings to you and everyone around you, is priceless. No matter how others treat me, being true to myself is the only eternal wealth I've ever known...

hi dear
me back
I know that no one can be 100% honest to another
to one yes… but not to all
Then why is Honesty the hardest thing to find?
Wen were are kids we are so honest n innocent… and as we keep growing not alwayz our honesty is reciprocated in the same manner… we start judging people… and behaving indifferently… coz we cant be honest with someone who is not honest with us… can we… atleast I can’t…
It all starts with small lies… n we start finding it convenient than giving explanations for being honest… the shortcuts always invites…
There are very few people I’m honest with…
I don’t betray but just that I cant be 100% true to all…
Cool stuff dear…
Keep rocking
Uttara lolz!
**n here no many aunties all gurlies with uncles arnd n they will get J
aww poor uncles...dun make em get admitted to ICU...and the girls can go to hell...who cares if they r J? lol!
Puneeeeeeeet huggggggggz!
Yeah u r so right...as we grow, we lose our innocence and honesty...the more we know, the more we hide...the more we get exposed to the world, the more we want to shadow the truth...
And ur right again...we can be 100% honest to one person, if not many...
Thanksssssss for that very intuitive comment matey...have an awesome day!
Keshi.
k00kie how very true... whn u r not honest wth urself its not possible to b honest wth nyone else...

honesty is hard to find. sometimes a little lie or two is better than be brutally honest. the dilemma arises when the lies stop fitting together cohesively and suddenly,the card palace tumbles down. i wonder if there are completely honest people.we've to concede that no one's perfect.
wooo...i loved this --> No matter how others treat me, being true to myself is the only eternal wealth I've ever known...
will b backk...
Hey Mich..
**cuz thr r very few ppl i can b completely honest wid
yes I totally agree with ya...to be honest with, one anticipates another honest heart. Thanks!

Did I promise u a diamond ring...awwww Im bad girl then cos I cant rem promising u that..lol...hugggggz sweety!
Heyyya Posion!
**the dilemma arises when the lies stop fitting together cohesively and suddenly,the card palace tumbles down.
so true..to cover one lie one needs to come up with another lie...it goes on till everything becomes too much to handle. And yes I agree, it's very hard to be completely honest...thanks!
Cheesy muahhhhhhz!
Julia take it easy...he aint a Tiger...just a lost and frightened, immature cat...:)
Keshi.
Honesty is extremely hard to come by these days...I have to admit, sometimes it's hard for me to hurt someone's feelings if it means having to tell them the truth...but in the end you must. I would rather people be up front with me rather than me be the last to know...
Can you be honest even when you know that the person is lying to you?
Can you be honest when you are ashamed of your past?
Can you be honest if you are a sinner?
Can you be honest if honesty is all you have and nobody seems to be bothered about it?
Just some thoughts Keshi...sorry if I sound really impulsive... :) It was a v thoughtful post. Made me wonder if I should really be sensitive to people and lie for their good!?
**No matter how others treat me, being true to myself is the only eternal wealth I've ever known...**
so wise said keshu, i have been taken for granted too... n that too by my close friends.....
atleast i was honest, but that friend of mine broke my trust,sobssss...
anywayss v all learn like this only ...
nice post keshu as always.. u r 1 wiseass u know ..lolzz
love u re ,hugss babez

Another great post, Keshi, I'll never figure out how you do it time and time again.
I believe in honesty at almost all costs. Sometimes though, one has no choice but to keep the truth from seeping out, since it would only cause heartache and loss of peace of mind.
Double standards though, because I insist on knowing, good or bad, the whole truth in any given situation.
"I have been cheated, walked all over...I have not failed the test of honesty." True strength of character, keshi, you have my admiration.

no matter how others treat me, being true to myself is the only eternal wealth I've ever known...
this the basic truth of life in order to live a complete life, one must be completely honest to oneself.
as for being honest to others, one has decide in each case oneself honestly.
Okie...
I agree with you here that honesty is required in a relationship....but I dont think its necessary to be 100%. As long as that 1% of lie is not going to bring a lifetime-scar in the 2 entities involved.
hen why is Honesty the hardest thing to find?
Its not possible to be honest 100% with people invovled with you in your daily life. Are you honest with your parents? Do you tell them each and everything you come across daily? I mean, there has to be a boundary where you say, alright this is it...I can be this much honest with you, rest I dont wannna speak out coz its not going to matter to you or us if we move ahead from here.
I have been cheated, walked all over,....
I've been through all this too, at times I too felt, there is no point in being honest..lets be the way people around me are forcing me to be. But things are just not that easy to accept. Are they??
No matter how others treat me, being true to myself is the only eternal wealth I've ever known...
That was just amazing...
Mwwaaahhhh for that sentence
This reminds me of one scene I saw in one movie. I think in "Liar Liar" there was a scene where, Jim's son asks him, dad why do u hafta lie all the time. He replies back saying, "Son, its necesary, to keep certain things in place. Like when ur mommy was pregnant, she asked me lot many times...how do I look. I'd to lie to her that she's gorgeous..but truth was she was really looking like a cow"
I think if ma wife is gonna ask me this, I'm going to reply, YOU REALLY REALLY look beautiful.
:)
She is not hurt...
I dont know at this time, will she really look that gorgeous or not, but I made her smile.
Good one K000kie-piez
Hugzz and hope you had lotsa fun.
Take care
i feel the same a linny does...its hard sometimes but in the end it is worth better to tell the truth
oh gosh !! i'm in love with your posts !! man, you write so touching posts...
take care,
hugggzzz,
vivek
'Honesty' itself is not 100% honest. It hides 'H' from itself when pronounced by someone. And yes Diamonds are forever only when hidden in lockers and used occasionaly.
The other problem with honesty is - it makes enemy not the friends. For example if someone is honest for himself then he or she will be honest for others too and that's where he or she will start making new enemies or loosing friends... one way or another.
Trust is hard 2 build, especially in my school. I turn away n my stuff, well some, is gone... But hey, some ppl r worth trusting ;-) PEACE
awesome thoughts gorgeous.. all i wanna say is its nt very easy to be honest with everyone n at every step of life but always try to be honest with yr love ones n if u cant thn just keep quiet ..dont lie..
you know what, truth may hurt, but lies scar.
..yesss thats wht i mean..
I have been cheated, lied to, back-stabbed, betrayed..
..yess me too once by smone... donno smtimes ppl just take advantage of ma sweetness n forgiving attitude.. but still i dont hv anything against that person coz its me ... cant change..
No matter how others treat me, being true to myself is the only eternal wealth I've ever known...
wowww awesm words gorgeous..
hugggzzzzzzz :)
:)
hey Keshi :) how are ya? diamonds are forever and a girl's best friend too. And honesty sure is the best policy:)
Yes dear...honesty is something which is very rare just like priceless diamonds :)
If you find them then make sure you dont let them go..:)
Amazing thought provoking post of yours...I loved it...as honesty is such a tiny thread which can bring down the whole tent down :)
with lots of love n huggs

Linny helloooo :)
**I have to admit, sometimes it's hard for me to hurt someone's feelings if it means having to tell them the truth
so true...I mean even I dun wanna hurt someone by telling something like 'u r so fat'...:) There r ways to tell such things in subtle ways w.o. hurting someone's feelings...but when it comes to serious stuff u got to be straightforward or else u'll be cheating urself and the other person...yes it's always better to know the truth than exist over lies...thanks girl! :)
Helloooo Pele long time!
**Can you be honest even when you know that the person is lying to you?
yes...I can...even if someone else lies to me, I wouldnt wanna go down his path...I'd still be me :)
**Can you be honest when you are ashamed of your past?
what exactly d u mean by shame? Well u have to realise ppl make mistakes...and u have to learn to forgive urself for that and move on...if it's still making u ashamed and lie, then u haven't forgiven urself...first step would be that :) and then u can always be open with it...
**Can you be honest if you are a sinner?
yes...if I have sinned I wouldnt hesitate a moment to say I did it and I'm sorry...I want to learn from my mistakes and if I dun forgive and move on, I will never be able to learn from it...isnt it?
**Can you be honest if honesty is all you have and nobody seems to be bothered about it?
true...I understand u here...I have been through that...given my heart and soul to ppl but all I got back in return were a fist full of nothing...but I have been myself right along...I will never be like them cos that's not me. So I will still be honest no matter what cos at the end of the day, I have a smile in my heart...and they dont...
Thanks Pele! Hope this answers ur queries :)
Keshi.
Huggggggz st000nie mah pretty gal!

**Its not possible to be honest 100% with people invovled with you in your daily life. Are you honest with your parents? Do you tell them each and everything you come across daily?
yes I tell EVERY thing to my mum :) dun u? given I have more time, I would even tell every detail of my train trip lol!
**I mean, there has to be a boundary where you say, alright this is it...
yes ofcourse there is! That's why I said that I dun mean every minute circumstance...I meant 100% Honesty when loving and caring for someone...
**I can be this much honest with you, rest I dont wannna speak out coz its not going to matter to you or us if we move ahead from here.
d u talk like this with ur loved ones z000nie?
**at times I too felt, there is no point in being honest..lets be the way people around me are forcing me to be.
no never think like that....they can crucify me but I'll be ME...not THEM.
**That was just amazing...
Mwwaaahhhh for that sentence

Good one! :)
**And yes Diamonds are forever only when hidden in lockers and used occasionaly.
hehe...but Honesty should be used all the time and not hidden :)
**The other problem with honesty is - it makes enemy not the friends.
so what? let it. If u being honest doesnt make ur friend happy, then he's not worth ur friendship anyways...isnt it?
**that's where he or she will start making new enemies or loosing friends...
better have real enemies than false friends...:)
Hallloooo sweety Quz Boss!
**Trust is hard 2 build, especially in my school. I turn away n my stuff, well some, is gone...
very true! Trust is a very very hard thing to build.It's like building a home forever...cos it doesnt stop building...it's a life-time job...
aww ppl steal ur things at school? so cruel nah...
**But hey, some ppl r worth trusting ;-)
Definitely! Worth giving everyone a chance...if they break it then give em another chance..if they do it again then I guess it's hard to trust that person again...
Thanks sweety ur wise beyond ur age!

John ur mistaken..the comment left posing as me in ur blog, is from a net lunatic who goes around commenting like me...my blogger ID is 4726142...and if u click on that loser's ID u will see the ID is different.
There are ppl in this world with severe mental problems..the above impersonator is such a person along with gutter-level family upbringing...
His own demented website is at
http://it-committee-n-community.blogspot.com/ where no one visits but himself.
u will see what sort of a crack he is, thrashing people every day...
Cheers and thanks for dropping by at my site John :)
Keshi.
And sorry John I have to delete ur comment cos it's neither relevant to the post nor to me...
u may leave that proposal to that guy at his website suggested above - He's prolly looking for a gay partner cos he's not a man (no offense to u John :)

"Honesty is such a lonely word"
I hope you don't really believe that. The only way to truly be with someone, to get past the natural state of being alone in this quiet universe, is to be honest and to be open. But I would bet you know this!
Did you leave that personal application on my blog, or was it just that old joker pretending to be you?
Rock on!
lol Rex it's that loser leaving personal ads using my id...he's cloned me...just click the link and u will see the difference in blog Ids...mine is #4726142...
Thanks for that comment Rex...I know that being honest is the best way to get past loneliness...but what I meant is that not many ppl r really honest...
Keshi.
Thank you for your thoughts Keshi. I must say it triggered off further thoughts in my mind but this space is too small for them! ;) So I'll hold on in the expectation that someday we'll be able to chat about it.
Btw, I am yet to learn the art of forgiving myself. :)
Take care mate,
