“Honesty is the cornerstone of character. The honest man or woman seeks no merely to avoid criminal or illegal acts, but to be scrupulously fair, upright, fearless in both action and expression. Honesty pays dividends both in dollar and in peace of mind.”

If you lie it will come back and get you, it is better not  to lie. you shouldn't lie in life because one little lie can lead to a big,huge lie maybe even a huge problem, some people that lie even if they try to cover for someone end up in jail.

Man Returns Stolen Cash to Sears After 60 Years

Man Returns Stolen Cash to Sears After 60 Years

A man from Seattle, Washington returns the cash he stole from a register at sears. He left an envelope inside the envelope was $100 and a note that said that in the late 1940’s he had stolen about 420 from the register. And that now he paid them $100. I think that he did this because he felt guilty and every nigh his conscience kept bugging him about the money he stole. And he felt the weight on his shoulders but, once he return the money he felt free of debt you can say. He didn’t feel guilty. And he didn't have to worryb about thinking of the wrong he had done and the dishonesty he will have to carry, because he went back and fixed his mistake.
