Some say telling the truth will always make things better.
Well allow me to tell you a story otherwise.
I was coming out of a late night eatery, and, per chance, I happen to begin following two young girls.
One of them said “I hope you aren’t following us”. Telling the truth I said “Yes”.
A short time later, one of them said “I hope you aren’t thinking about killing us”.
Telling the truth I said “Yes”. Why? Because it was her that placed the thought in my head, so I couldn’t help not to!
