--------------------

There are certain considerations or factors that everyone takes into account in a relationship. People expect honesty, understanding and loyalty. Every human being possesses to some extent some of these virtues. Honesty sometimes is not the proper type of behavior in some specific situations which require some special consideration. In certain life cases we would rather lie than tell the truth not5 because we are liars. On the contrary! Sometimes we deliberately lie provoked by noble motives.

In a relationship between a mother and a child, for instance not telling the truth is a substantial part of the bringing up. There are general rules that every mother keeps in order to spare the disappointment of her child or prevent him or her from some fears. The most beautiful
Life about the existence of Santa clause brings joy and happiness for the child years on end. Why not lie them?!

In a relationship between a male and female humans there sometimes comes a moment when one of the partners would not like to tell ‘’ the whole truth and nothing but the truth ‘’ because the truth can sometimes hurt. It may hurt deeply and cause some devastating psychological depression. If a woman would not like to tell a man that his appearance is appaling or that his table manners are horrible she would most probably use a lie, which I call a noble lie, in order not to hurt the man’s feelings. She does not want to make him feel a lower level of a person.

Sometimes relatives and friends decide not to share information about the coming lethal end of a person again with altruistic intentions. Thus the dying person has the chance to believe in his bright future and the optimism that he is suggested may really give him enough strength as to really overcome his health problem. Positive energy and thinking are always preferable in any crucial situations.

Although everybody would like to be involved with honest, loyal people sometimes we need to seriously re-interpret their meaning, in order to realize that not telling the truth is not a genuine lie. We should also believe that telling a lie can save somebody’s life or at least make it much happier and meaningful.
