So, today while watching "How I met your mother", a dialogue from Robin Scherbatsky pushed me into thinking and also, writing this down for future reference - for I forget a lot. The dialogue was "Honesty is tough but actually a far kinder alternative". It's better to say those few tough words now and sort things out for future rather than to procrastinate things for the heck of it.There's another common adage for which I have lost the approval. They say - "Truth is always bitter.". Why we assign a "flavor" to truth is beyond my understanding. Its like generalizing that "all men are dogs" - though I do agree that quite a few of them are actually just that. Not all men are dogs and also, not all truth is bitter. When you kneel down in front of THE girl and ask her for an eternal togetherness, everything you say is truth. Ask the guy or the girl the taste of that truth. Now let's look at the exact opposite. when a guy or a girl bails out of a relationship, who likes to hear the reasons for rejection? It would taste bitter at that moment. But as the time passes by, whether those people stay apart or together, that truth would certainly feel better.
Truth is indeed just truth. So, essentially, be honest say the truth, let the truth simmer in the warmth of time, the outcome would be sweeter.
