The Best Trait to Have
2/20/2018
There are a lot of different types of traits out there and the one I appreciate the most is honesty. I believe honesty, above all else is a rare trait to find in most people.
True honesty to me is someone who won't sugar coat things, they just say what they think. Most people think this is a bad thing but I don’t. Say you have an ugly hat and no one says anything, now you just look stupid but if someone informed you of your fashion sense, you would know to take the hat off. It’s impossible to know what people think just by looking at them so if you have people who are honest with you it can really help you out.
Some people are jerks and if no one tells them how are they suppose to know. Why would they change if no one is telling them to? There are a lot of examples like this and I’ve probably been that jerk a few times and would have loved to know what I was doing was wrong. I hate being in situations where only if someone was honest with me I would have known what was wrong. sometimes people might need a Simon Cowell to help them in the long run.
I can’t stand people who lie. I’ve been lied to far too many times and it really irritates me when people lie to my face. This is what I consider the worst trait in a person, someone who believes telling a lie over a truth is someone I wouldn’t want to associate myself with. Of course, I know there are somethings that people are too afraid to admit, but lying about it is just wrong. Lying can lose you people you care about, gaining someone's trust is much harder than losing it.
I’ve been told by a couple of my friends that one of my greatest strengths is my honesty and at the same time, it’s one of my greatest weaknesses. I’m too honest for my own good and have definitely offended people in the past before, and if I’m honest I feel a little guilty but sometimes the truth hurts. Maybe everybody needs a reality check once in awhile.
I know That there are a lot of different people out there, a lot of truly honest people and a lot of liars. I know not everyone likes harsh honesty and some people like it sugar coated, but not me. I like people who are honest, it helps me become a better person and in the end that what I care about. That's why I think honesty is the best trait to have.
