▶ Your Answer :
People
in the modern society communicate with a lot of people in daily life. In the
conversation, people do not always tell the truth due to their circumstances.
Some people believe it is not a good attitude. However, in my opinion, there
are special cases which are better not to tell the truth. There are two main circumstances
which I will explore in the following essay.
To
begin with, when you talk to people in a good purpose, it may turn out into a
positive result even though its content is false. Generally, these positive
results make other people happy in their life, and they might feel grateful for
me. If so, I would be excited as well because my words had made them
delightful. There is a popular research which is called ‘placebo effect.’ It
was about the mental experiment of patients. Patients received a medicine which
can cure every disease, and it is proven by their main doctor. In fact, these medicines
had totally no effect on their ailment. However, patients in the hospital
desperately believed that the medicine would make them completely healed from
illness. Surprisingly, after a few months of false treatment, majority of the
patients became healthy, due to their strong belief in the mind. In the
process, the doctor obviously lied to patients regarding the false medicine.
However, it turned out as a greatly happy result. As seen on this research, false
indications sometimes help people.
On
top of that, some truths in the world must be kept as a secret, especially in
the case of serious promise between people. To be specific, it is important
because trust in the friendship is one of the most valuable assets in the life.
Generally, if distrust began to arise between friends, it is hard to reverse
their relationship as before. For example, when I was in high school, I have a
friend who loved to play soccer. However, his parents really hated his playing
soccer because he once broke his ankle severely during the soccer match. His
parents always asked me about my friend`s behavior, and whether he played
soccer at school. To keep relationship with my friend, I always said that my
friend had no interest in the soccer anymore. Due to the false words I had said
in the past, me and my friend are still best friends which persisted for about
20 years.
In
conclusion, sometimes it is important to lie in order to achieve happy ending.
This is due to the fact that good purposes makes outcome positive, and also
keeping words is essential between reliable relations.
