Today I struggled with telling the truth! Why?

So I have been thinking a lot about this blog and what I want it to be. I want to be able to say things that matter to me.

Today I was asked a question about another person. Now I do not get along with this person very well but honestly I didn't give the answer I gave for that reason.  I told the truth.  Now I feel like I did the wrong thing. I hate that I feel like that. I would hope that if someone asked about me that the truth would be told, as long as it is good, (haha) not true I want what is true to be good. No one is all good and I understand that.  I worry  that people will feel that I am not nice because what the truth was, was bad.  I am such a worry wart.

The thing is that people expect that because they want something that they deserve it. If you are lazy and complain all the time, don't keep promises, or don't work hard enough then you don't deserve those friends or that job/raise. If you think you are too good for the entry level position and you don't give it your all because it is beneath you, then what makes you think that you are going to succeed at the higher job? You might get there and think that the job is shit and act the same way that you did at the other one.  I told a coworker a couple of months ago when he was complaining about the monotony that 'You are here so why not do the  best you can at what you are doing now ' He laughed it off but that is so true about life. If you go through life only skating by on the least you can do then your whole life is only half lived.

To go further on the previous thread. If you hate doing the dishes so you do them quick to just get the deed done then when you pull a plate out to use it and it's dirty then you have to clean it again.  You've just done the thing you hate twice when you could have been eating or doing something you enjoy.

I am going to stop rambling now but the overall points here are
1. Don't be afraid of the truth if you have done and been the best you can. 
2.  Do things right the first time. It saves energy and you'll come out happier in all respects.
