Stephanie Ericsson says [in her essay “The Ways We Lie”]. We cannot live in this world without lying in almost every kind of situation. All we do is lie and it hurts people, but wait she also says that we just go around telling everyone the truth on everything all the time either. Sure some lies are worse than others like the bold face that people tell us even we saw them comfit the said crime. There are some lies that are not as noticeably offensive as others such as the white lie that we tell people to keep them from being hurt by the truth.
Spanking and Aggression in Young Children Can spanking really lead to aggressive behavior in young children? In my opinion, it can and usually does. Have you ever gotten a spanking from a parent or adult, but then were told “hitting and slapping are not okay,” by that same adult? You probably felt confused or angry and asked them, “why is it ok for you to slap me, but it’s not okay for me to slap you?” This is one of a few reasons why I do not believe spanking is an effective form of punishment and can lead to aggressive behavior in children. It can cause confusion, which can then lead to stress, which can then result in aggressive behavior from the child.
As a society I don’t think that some people don’t intend to lie to hurt someone intentionally all the time but they lie to make them feel better some times. Is this always the case, I don’t think so, I just think that as a whole society has almost condoned lying in some aspect, little white lies. As it was quoted in the book by Nietzche “There is only one world, and that is false, cruel, contradictory, misleading, senseless.

Each section refers to a different body part and its controversial movements when dishonesty is suspected. When he mentions that “ Most people aren’t aware that their body speaks a language all its own; try as they will to deceive you with their words, the truth can be always silently observed” I wondered what he meant. Then, he also says at some part that “ A person who is lying to you will do everything to avoid making eye contact”. That part is so reasonable because most people when they start lying to you, don’t like looking at your faces because they feel you will be able to see through them. But at some point, when we tell the truth or we’re offended by something bad, we tend to give our full focus and have fived concentration.
If someone does have too much pride they are often to stubborn to admit that they are wrong. Which in some cases lead to a life of crime. If a child would lie to their parents that would be so simple as to just hitting their sibling, or forgetting to take the trash out. After they would get caught up in the lie they would continue lie, and lie, and lie. It’s not that they are stupid; it’s just that their pride makes them do stupid stuff, as to admitting to their mistake and telling the truth.
Language Department Language Arts Lies we don’t want to know Once in our lives we have heard our parents or a teacher telling us lying is bad, that no matter what, the truth is always the answer, but in reality telling the truth can hurt as much as lying, people get affected by it. We as a society always brag about how important telling the truth is, when in fact we are not ready to hear it. According to the dictionary the meaning of ‘Truth’ is the true facts about something, rather than the things that have been invented or guessed, and of course it’s better to tell the truth than lying, but the truth can hurt as much as telling a lie and we are not ready to hear it if we react in a bad way. In the story ‘like the sun’ we see a man only saying the truth for a day, and instead of getting nice treats for doing the right thing, he gets bad consequences. Sekhar’s boss asks him to come to his house with him and tell him his truthful opinion on his singing, telling him that he can have 10 days to check the tests, but in that moment he needed to focus on his music “Well, you must listen with a free mind.

However you may have felt about them before, you can’t help but distance yourself from them now. You begin to question everything they tell you and lose faith in them. When it is yourself that has been caught up in the web of lies and lying, you find the lie always travels outward becoming larger and more complex. Which each telling of a lie it becomes more real in your mind to the point that you have now formed a false reality for yourself. If one is always impeccable with their word, be it with themselves or with the world around them, they will always find comfort in that truth.
