In our daily life, it is common for people to tell lies, including white lies and black lies. This reveals a fact that to tell the truth is not always essential and on some occasions it is necessary to tell lies. The remark from American writer
Howard Mel, "We all tell lies--little lies, big lies, necessity lies in order to insure social and psychological peace and comfort" also has the similar meaning.
Most people tell white lies out of love, hoping that others can be reassured and feel comfortable. There is no doubt that these "nice lies" are harmless and well-intended. However, sometimes we need to be honest. In the trial, it is telling the truth that counts. Neglecting the truth will lead to unfair judgments.
Lies are necessary in our lives, but we can not live on lies. Between white lies and black lies, we'd better choose the white lies. Between white lies and the truth, we'd better choose the truth.
