Tell a lie

Everyone tells a white lie on occasion, it’s just a question of why. Some white lies save relationships, some ease a hectic situation, and others buy us time. The list could go on forever. Stretching the truth is a natural component of human instinct because it’s the easy way out. We all do it, so there is no reason to deny it. Honestly, I think the world is probably a better place because of our white lies.
As long as we aren’t hurting others or breaking the law, these innocent lies can make life more pleasant. Many people probably have such a situation in which the waiter tells them their table will be ready in five minutes. But actually, they get their table after ten or even fifteen minutes. Such a white lie only stretches an interpretation of what the truth actually is anyways. That is, the waiter uses the white lie to make sure the customer will get their table eventually, just a matter of time. Given our rigid optimism to each lead a tailored ideal life, white lies simply cushion us from ourselves.
