There is a line in which I believe firmly and try to maintain that. I always respect those who tell me the truth no matter how hard that is. Whether the truth is unpleasant for me or not, I don't mind, rather I appreciate those people. It's better to encounter the truths rather than living in illusions.
In our life, this happens many times that we become afraid of speaking the truth thinking of the reaction of the opposite side. But this is not how it should have been done. Hiding a thing doesn’t end that matter there. Sometimes most of the reasons see the light of reality, when it happens then it does cause more damage than before. In my personal life, I have faced it more than ever and did incurable damage to me. From that incident, I always respect those who tell me the truth. Even I assure people that I would not be offended at all, just tell me the truths even if they reflect the bad sides of me. That would be a help to work on those sides too.
Sometimes we hide the truth thinking that will save many problems and so on. But later when we find out, does more chaos, why don't we get that straight? The sooner we get there, the better they are for us.
Another thing I hate is not solving my problems with myself rather than rushing to others. If we have a problem with someone then it is better to try to solve that between each other. If we can't make that work out mutually then we might think of approaching someone else close to us. Instead of doing these we go to others first and share our problems but this could have been solved in a blink of an eye if they had approached each other just a little bit. Rumors are not completely false news always, at least there is a little portion of truth from where the fire is set up.
People comfort themselves by sharing their problems with others. But they don't try to get that the problem could have been solved by sharing with that person with whom we are having a problem. When we do share with the third parties first and later they spread and come to the right person does more damage than before. This is really a bad practice to follow.
I have faced both of these and experienced the unpleasant portion that was not meant to be done. Let's be more careful on these kinda little matters that could hit back very hard.
