taught us to always tell the truth and never to lie. Although‚ telling the truth is the morally correct thing to do‚ I believe there are scenarios when lying is acceptable. One should not make a habit of lying‚ but know when the right time and the right place is to lie. Lying for the greater good to spare someone’s feelings‚ to keep a child’s innocence‚ or to even save a life are just a few examples when I think lying can be tolerated. People say “tell me the truth‚ I can handle it.” But really

The Hurt Locker is a film that tells the story of an Army bomb squad fighting to stay alive in Iraq. The Sand Storm is a play by Sean Huze in which a series of monologues about the Iraq war are performed by a group of Marines. Both of these follow a series of characters through the war and shows it affects them not only as a soldier in the war but as a civilian back home.

This Will Hurt. “I’m almost completely certain that it is herpes‚” the kind urgent care doctor says to me. In this moment‚ the floodgates of tears I’d been fighting so hard to keep back open up. “I’m so sorry. But we’ll know for certain in a few days.” She sends the prescription to the pharmacy and I do my best to not cry in the lobby. This was the worst birthday ever. During the days leading up to my 19th birthday‚ I was crippled by what I thought was nothing more than an awful UTI. I did everything

“One day the truth will emerge‚ like a corpse in the water.” -Wieslaw Brudzinski. Everyone has been lied to‚ mistreated or even betrayed at some point in their life. That feeling is awful‚ but to be the person that did so wrong should feel even worse because of the pain they caused to someone else.

Can Words Hurt People? I believe words can be the most painful things in this life. They can communicate so many different things‚ in so many different ways. Often unknowingly‚ words can insult‚ belittle‚ and take sides‚ show anger‚ pride‚ and sadness. They are the most diverse and most expressive means of communication. They can sometimes tell more than body language itself. When you are speaking to someone‚ your words often come to you before your thoughts. They reveal something about

your own isn’t as easy as people think it is. You need to be smart‚ so you know what to do. For example‚ directions‚ food‚ water‚ shelter‚ and sacrifice are important.
