It seems to me that fiction is never written without a co-existence of its opposite. In every truth there is some untruth, and every untruth is based on a certain truth. How is it then that we are to determine where each one is draws a line. How often should we mingle truth with untruth in order to protect? And how much should we "lie" in order to maintain relations...?
Is it worth it to sacrifice a measure of integrity? I know I have said that I believe there is a time for an appropriate lie, and that that I still hold. Does that make me a hypocrite?
Where should I draw the line between truth and untruth?
Where do I measure the worth of my integrity?
How to I maintain who I am?
How do we all maintain who we are...if there is indeed such thing as the "appropriate lie"?
God help us all, if we cannot learn it for ourselves...

Your answer is in your last sentence. Just substitute "when" for "if". :)
Also, your friends are always standing by if you are ever in need.
Love, Me.
