April 30th and its National Honesty Day, for real it is! ๐ Can you believe they actually started a bizarre and unusual holiday for being honest? When I first saw it, I really did have a laugh. It’s like they are insinuating the rest of the days are Let’s Practice Dishonesty Days or let’s all lie?! Who made up this holiday anyway? I thought about this is and it’sย kind of serious thing, this business ofย honesty.ย Well, for the most part I do believe it’s a given that most people are honest. Of course I do look for the good in anyone and everyone, so I could be wrong. But, I sure do hope not.
It’s odd to me to fathom telling lies, making stuff up or being anything but honest. Why do it and what’s the point? How can people who aren’t honest remember to get those lies or the story straight anyway? I am just not clear at all on that one, it must get awfully burdensome. A sad practice indeed and so unnecessary and I mean that with all my heart. So maybe today is good day for those who have trouble with the honesty factor to give it some thought, maybe? Is that why someone ย thought up this holiday? The more I think about it maybe it wasn’t made up just for the heck of it. Nothing to make light of, you know what I’m saying?
I love to laugh, enjoy having a good time and Autumn and I try so hard to make our blog beย fun and happy, always. Of course you kind readers know this already. I am not writing this stuff to upset people or give a little lecture of sorts and I certainly don’t want people to be depressed about the subject. It’s something to think about, something to ponder about…I really do like pondering myself. I do it a lot actually, that is clearly obvious I have a feeling. My pondering may be well-known by now!
Anyway, today is National Honesty Day and everybody you decide the best way to celebrate the day! You kind readers make the day what you will, OK?ย Any thoughts or wanting to share, please do feel free to chime in…Sharing is always good! ๐

Soma I am glad you are in agreement about lying, but I knew you would be, too! Honesty is the best policy, always. I had a good laugh looking at things from your angle about courts and lawyers! ๐ I hadn’t thought of it, but glad you did! That really is such a funny, but real thought and now I can imagine it…Thanks for pointing that one out Soma! ๐ Hugs and Love ๐

You said it! That’s exactly so true and thanks for reading and giving your thoughts! ๐
Omg, i never really knew that such thing as Honesty Day exist.. and about honesty, i truly agree with you.. One should make honesty as a priority in their life.. As said by Thomas Jefferson, Honesty is the First Chapter in the Book of Wisdom ๐
