Not everything you hear or read is true. Other people may say or write things that aren’t true and try to get you to believe them. It is sometimes hard to tell what is true and what is false. But one thing is sure, the only truth is what is true for you.
No one else can make you believe something you don’t want to or make something true which you don’t believe. Think for yourself and decide what you believe to be true. If something is not true for you, then it is not true.
Don’t tell harmful lies.
Harmful lies are very dangerous. They can hurt the people they are told about. They can also hurt the people who tell them because soon these people will not be trusted. Many fights, and even wars, begin because of harmful lies. Learn to see lies and don’t tell lies yourself.
The way to happiness is a truthful path.
