Student Success Statement

       Eight Great reasons to tell the truth 
                                 Barbara A. Lewis
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  1. Telling the truth lets everyone know what really happened there is less chance of misunderstanding, confusion, or conflict,
  2. Telling the truth protects innocent people from being blamed or punished 
  3. Telling the truth allows everyone to learn from what happened.
  4. You usually get into less trouble for telling the truth other than lying (and getting caught)
  5. Other people trust you more when you tell the truth 
  6. You don't have to tell ( and remember) more lies to keep your story straight
  7. You gain a reputation for being truthful- a trait most people value.
  8. Telling the truth helps you to feel secure and peaceful inside.

I agree with these 8 reasons to tell the truth. Telling the truth is better than getting caught and getting a bad punishment for it. Of you tell the truth maybe not everyone will trust you the same because you might of told on them but other people will know you are an honest person who wouldn't lie. lieing won't help you because if if you are telling a story about something that happened and you switch up the story because you can't remember what you lied about last time can get you in trouble. Once you lie you get into the habit of lieing because you feel that if you lie then you can get yourself out of anything. Sometimes telling the truth is the best thing you can do you might be doing someone a favor or helping someone out by telling the truth.We should all try to tell the truth and not lie no matter the situation.
