boys of summer...
okay... so this entry really has nothing to do with summer boys, but i'm kinda trying to stick to song titles for my entries for a while... so i guess it was just the first thing that popped into my head after recent conversations lately. hope you all are adjusting well to the third week of school (my gosh... third out of so many!!! ugh!) after that awesome retreat. (although in relevance to the title... i hate it when summer flings draw out into something that everyone knows would never work anyway... what a terrible waste of time, feelings, and words.)
so... new discussion entry... is honesty really the best policy in every situation? i wonder sometimes whether it is or not. obviously, it's generally the best thing to do. but what do you do in those grey areas that Moses himself wouldn't dare to take a black-and-white position on? i dunno... it just seems to me like sometimes honesty is the greater of the two evils. lol. such vital decisions as we get older, huh?
the "butterfly effect" thing's kinda creepy when you think about it. maybe i'm just the only one that thinks so... but seriously, the cause-and-effect relationships between such tiny little things are really kinda disturbingly worrisome. okay that last sentence really made next to no sense, but i really was trying. anyways, i guess that's enough for tonight... (don't forget to stop by two of our recently recovered blog sites, since shane(for a while) and adam(since may) were dead to blogging and have now returned... at least for now!) so sweet dreams and have a great friday!

Ugh...honesty... what an interesting and complicated word/topic. I wonder about that as well. I've always thought that we're supposed to be honest in every situation...but then there are the situations where honesty cuts a little too deep. I think the word integrity means more to me than honesty. But I hear you, and I've experienced it from both sides, and I have no answers... only more questions. I beg you to come read my blog, I'm dying for comments/intelligent conversation, and I did post a discussion topic entry! yay for me. see ya later!

no, honesty is not the best policy for every situation. It may the right or noble thing to do, but it is not always the best thing to do, not always the kindest and not always the safest thing to do. the grey line, is not whether honest is best, but when honesty is best.

I don't think honesty is always best, either. Obviously. Haha
