We all know the difference between good and bad. Sometimes the line gets a little fuzzy, but it's still there. And, like that line, we know the difference between the truth and a lie.
But there are times when all we want to hear is the lie. "It's going to be okay..."
Or we purposefully tell a lie in order to hear the truth. "I look fat!" ... "No you don't! You look great!"
But what do you do when your friend asks you a question where you know the truth will hurt them, but the lie is bad for them?
You just smile and give them a hug.
