Honesty means speaking the truth and being fair and upright in act. He who
lies and cheats is dishonest; those who gain fortunes not by hard labour but by
other means is dishonest.
Honesty is a good virtue. If you are honest all the time,you’ll be trusted
and respected by others. A liar is always looked down upon and regarded as a
black sheep by the people around. Once you lie, people will never believe you
even if you speak the truth.
However, in the tide of commodity economy today, it seems that more and
more people believe in money at the sacrifice of honesty. To them, among such
things as health, beauty, money, intelligence, honesty, reputation and talent,
honesty is the only thing that can be erased away. They don’t understand or
pretend not to understand that honesty is the biggest fortune human beings own,
and that it is the prerequisite for doing everything well. I think these people
are to be pitied.
In short, honesty is gold. Honest, your reputation will become great;
dishonest, your name will be spoiled and your personality degraded. Therefore,
we should never make such an excuse as "A little dishonesty is only a trifle
thing. We should eradicate immediately the seed of dishonesty once it is sowed
in our minds.
