It occured to me today that happiness and honesty go hand in hand. The proof of this is found in our peace of mind. When we are at peace with ourselves and others,we have nothing to hide. Therefore, we are honest and happy too.
Now, I wonder how do we lose our peace of mind? Is it a deliberate act on our part that we separate ourselves from Truth and begin to live a lie?
No, I believe it's more subtle, perhaps even an act of our sub-conscious mind. We are disturbed by something/ we become afraid, and so the lies begin. We step away from truth and slowly our peace of mind dwindles, little by little.
The solution is simple. Simply be honest. Face our fears, whatever they might be and turn our minds and hearts to Truth.
Christ said, 'I am the Way, the Truth...'
Let's link up with this compassionate Redeemer and we will find, the Truth will set us free,
free to be honest. The result is happiness.
