More on truth

[Guest guest]

It's interesting to me how timely this discussion on truth is.

 

Yesterday Krista and I were talking about how important honesty (with

Debi) is when I realized that truth is not as important as intention.

 

Have you ever met someone who uses truth like a weapon?

 

For example, they will discover a truth about another person and then tell

that truth to others to cause this person grief.

 

In this case, truth takes a back seat to intention. The person intends to

do harm, and that makes the action disharmonious. They are using truth to

disrupt peace instead of bring peace about.

 

Not all truths lead us to peace. That's why we must be careful and have

clear intention before we choose the next rock on which to stand.
