| Most Recent Posts How to Be HonestPosted Aug-24-08 16:09:10 PDT Updated Aug-24-08 16:10:11 PDT I write this for there are people out there that have no clue what it means to be a honest person. J.F. you know who you are. There is such a thing as being too honest, at least out loud. Sometimes it's best to keep your opinions to yourself. There are other situations that call for a candid response. People, as a rule, expect honesty out of others. Finding balance is key. Read on to learn how to be honest. Step1
Think before you speak. If what you are about to say will do more
damage than good and could hurt someone's feelings, it might be best to
remain silent. Ask yourself how you would feel if someone said it to
you. Step2
Return extra change to clerks. Give back to people what you owe them,
and take care of your commitments. While this may be called "cash
register honesty," it is an important step in developing an honest
character. Step3
Talk about yourself as much as you are willing to share with other
people. Omitting details that may be embarrassing or harmful to your
position is not always necessary. An honest person does not make up
stories about herself. Instead, she is discreet with her revelations. Step4
Tell yourself the truth. Always be honest with yourself. Denial is best
left in the kitchen to boil on a stove until it disappears into the
air. Eventually, your lies will catch up to you, and you will see the
results or your unwillingness to live up to your own standards and to
face reality. Step5
Choose the people that you can trust to be totally honest with.
Hopefully, you can tell anything to your spouse or partner. A best
friend should be vetted slowly and given small pieces of your bare
truth at a time. Trust is earned and it is OK to keep friendships
superficial as long as you are honest with yourself. Google EarthPosted Aug-15-08 10:05:25 PDT This software is really great. It is free and you should check it out.

Remember, one man's trash is another man's treasure! Justice always prevailsPosted Jul-13-08 16:15:31 PDT Updated Jul-14-08 07:02:33 PDT Distributive justice Distributive justice, also known as economic justice, is about fairness in what people receive, from goods to attention. Its roots are in social order and it is at the roots of Communism, where equality is a fundamental principle. If people do not thing that they are getting their fair share of something, they will seek first to gain what they believe they deserve. They may well also seek other forms of justice. Procedural justice The principle of fairness is also found in the idea of fair play (as opposed to the fair share of distributive justice). If people believe that a fair process was used in deciding what it to be distributed, then they may well accept an imbalance in what they receive in comparison to others. If they see both procedural and distributive injustice, they will likely seek restorative and/or retributive justice. Restorative justice The first thing that the betrayed person may seek from the betrayer is some form of restitution, putting things back as they should be. The simplest form of restitution is a straightforward apology. Restoration means putting things back as they were, so it may include some act of contrition to demonstrate one is truly sorry. This may include action and even extra payment to the offended party. Restorative justice is also known as corrective justice. Retributive justice Restoration may well not be enough for the betrayed person and they may seek revenge of some sort, whereby they can feel the satisfaction of seeing the other person suffer in the way that they have suffered. Revenge can be many times more severe than reparation as the hurt party seeks to make the other person suffer in return. P.S. She did get her money back there is NO investigation... you lose. wow |
