I remember Esther on the television show used to tell Fred Sanford that "the truth will set you free" She is always referring to him as a heathen because he doesn't live his life in the way she lives his. Is that really true though? Will the truth set your free?
I know everyone has things that they do not talk about to other people to spare their feelings or to spare your own. Is always laying things on the table the best for everyone? Have you ever told a friend something that you felt that they needed to know even if it doesn't affect you directly? Even if it will hurt them in the end?
Life is full of choices that we all have to make from time to time. Some good and some bad. Weighing the options and doing what is best for you and/or them at the time those decisions need to be made.
Is there always room for second chances? Sure. But are we willing to accept that the decisions made the first time will not happen again? I guess it depends on the type of person that you are.
So the question again - will the truth set you free?

I think that you should be straight up regarding the truth in most situations. If it ends up helping someone in the end even after the hurt, it was worth it.
