Everybody interacts with one another and when honesty is neglected‚ problems tend to arise‚ controversies spark like a match.

O’Brien openly uses the thin line between truth and reality

Truth and Beauty Megan D. ENG 4U1 February 18‚ 2014 Ms. Reid Truth and beauty can seem to be two different things; I believe beauty is stereotypically a physical feature and truth coming from within the individual. After this unit‚ I have learned that truth is beautiful but beauty is not always truthful. I find truth is a more of a beneficial characteristic to possess; beauty will eventually fade‚ leaving only the truth behind. Outer beauty has never been my first
