Eight Great Reasons To Tell The Truth  -Barbara A. Lewis 

 1. Telling the truth lets everyone know what really happened. There's a less chance of misunderstanding, confusion, or conflict. 

2. Telling the truth protects innocent people from being blamed or punished. 

3. Telling the truth allows everyone to learn from what happened. 

4. You usually get into less trouble for telling the truth other than for lying (and getting caught). 

5. Other people trust you more than when you tell the truth. 

6. You don't have to tell (and remember) more lies to keep your story straight. 

7. You gain a reputation for being truthful- a trait most people value. 

8. Telling the truth helps you feel secure and peaceful inside. 

These are true reasons on why you shouldn't lie because it can make you a better person and your image will be represented better. These are right examples on why you should tell the truth and its correct because it tells examples on how errors can be fix and making up lies can be worst. If you want to gain trust by someone you should always be honest with them.
