By Topic #23
Here’s today’s topic, brought to you by Plinky.com:
Is it always better to know the truth, even when it hurts? Or is ignorance bliss? Or are they both true some of the time?
Bonus twist: how does your opinion on truth jive with your opinion of wikileaks?
Photo double twist: Take a picture of a thing that expresses a truth.
Reminder: Do not answer this in the comments. That would be very silly. You should grab this topic and write a post about it on your blog.

The truth is tricky. I prefer to drink strong alcohol and call the truth at a later time.

I’d say, Whose version of the truth? Aside from the obvious examples of what truth is… sunrise/sunset etc, the rest is debatable 🙂
Good topic for contemplation though.
Thanks,

I took this in a slightly skewed direction, of whether or not as a mom I should know everything:

How do you economise on your clothing budget? One tip is to look at your closet and select the pieces you have in there and start thinking about enhancing them with accessories, you’ll be amazed how outfits can change to look differently. All it needs is a basic wardrobe and a few favorite items of jewellery or scarves, pashminas, wraps, hats you name it and your can become your own outfit designer.

Yes, I’d rather know the truth and being able to handle it is about being a mature person. Finding out that you have not been told the truth for whatever reason is hurtful and shows a lack of respect. The sooner a person knows the truth the sooner he/she can start coping with whatever the situation is and the healing process can begin which is always delayed by be lied to.
