Resolution..

Hi,

Just a resolution I thought I must share with a few mattered people for the following year …so here goes :

” If I cant stand for something,I will fall for everything”.

In a world that is not matured enough to handle honesty,my honesty may be held against me.My honesty may cause me material loss.My honesty may make me unpopular in my peer group – no group wants to be one rascal less.In a competitive professional world,my honesty may make me appear too naive.My honesty may be laughed at and I may have to endure the brunt of sarcasm.My dearest ones may feel let down and betrayed for I stood for honesty than them.Put together,my honesty may make me look like a fool.But all-in-all , if honesty doesn’t save me,what does that say about me?

Lie needs maintenance.It robs me of my precious energy.Honesty self sustains.So,it conserves energy.But then why do I lie?I lie because I do not want to face the situation.The curse of lying is that it makes me an escapist.But,how far can I go in life by being an escapist?The blessing of honesty is that it builds in me the courage to face and endure any situation.I lie coz it promises me material gain.But,why should I prostitute my soul to ear that rupee?What is the use of material prosperity if it makes me spiritually poor?I lie to gain acceptance from a peer group.A lie may take care of my present,but it has no future.Lie has no endurance.Time will reveal the truth.I am what I am.and time will rip open all facades.Then,I will neither be able to face the world nor see my own self in the mirror.What a terrible thing to live in the limelight of popularity,to be envied as powerful,to be seen as someone special,and yet to be conscious all the time of not being what the world thinks I am,to live in constant terror of being found out,in the fear that I will be eventually unmasked and shown in true light?Lie is not worth it and honesty is worth every bit.”

MY RESOLVE – Nothing but truth will come out of me and I also resolve not to hold the honesty of people against them.
