For Those Who Like To

"Keep The Peace," Dishon-

esty Can Become A Way Of

LIFE.



They're Afraid To Rock The

Boat, Reluctant To Tell People

What They Really Think-Especially

If The Truth Might Make Someone

Uncomfortable Or Defensive.



But A Wise Person Will Commit

Themselves To The Good Of Others,

Even If That Requires Them To

Correct Or Rebuke Someone THEY

LOVE.



"TOUGH LOVE" In A Relationship

Can Be Costly, And Anger Or Retribution

Can Result.



The Wise Principle Here Is That The

Person Who Is Willing To LOVE OTHERS

WELL, No Matter What The Cost, Will Be

Appreciated More In The End Then The

Friend Who Takes The Easy Route Of

Flattery And Dishonesty.



"Wounds From A Friend Can Be Trusted,"



When Our Hearts Are In The Right Place,

We Can "Wound" Someone In A Way

That Heals And Restores.
