……. AND YOUR TRUTH IS NOT BELIEVED

*… AND YOUR TRUTH IS NOT BELIEVED*
✍️
There is a point you will get with jokes or lies and you will no longer be taken seriously, even when you are telling the truth or saying serious things.
✍️
Yes, there is something called *joke*, but do not joke with serious issues like : *life, relationship, business etc*. They are built and sustained with trust. Without trust,no meaningful progress will be made here. In fact, there is no reason it will stand at all.
✍️
A story was told of a hunter who blew his whistle and his fellow hunters rushed to assist him because he said that a Lion had come to devour him. But lo and behold, they didn’t see any lion.
✍️
He repeated this for the second time, the people rushed but could not see any lion. *Now, the real lion has appeared and he shouted as usual for people to come, but none could come this time. They all assumed that it is the same experience they would get and that was how the lion devoured the man*
✍️
You see, what the hunter said lately was the truth, but none could believe him.
✍️
Do not be known as a joker. Otherwise, your words will not be taken seriously. You may not be invited to any important meeting, you will be considered as one that doesn’t know when to be serious.
✍️
Tell truth to whom it’s due, this will save situations for you in the game of life.
✍️
A servant was sent to the shop of his boss’s friend to bring equipment they had been waiting for,to start their work in the office. After reasonable hours, the servant could not come back, so the boss sent another servant. After some time, the second servant returned with the equipment.
✍️
Meanwhile, the boss called the first servant again and asked him what had been keeping him,he replied that he was now coming back with the equipment. To this, the boss asked to understand exactly what he meant.”Do You mean you are with the equipment right now?”
“Yes, it’s with me now in my car, I am coming back with it” the first servant said.
✍️
Meanwhile, the said equipment was right there, in front of the boss,yet the servant claimed to be carrying it in his car.
✍️
Finally, the servant got to his destination and there,he was told that another servant had come and carry the equipment. All those responses he made was when he was heading to the destination of the equipment. Now,he realized himself.
✍️
When he came to the boss,he was asked to bring out the equipment he said was right there in his car, he was speechless. This act brought about a great demotion to him,in his place of work.
✍️
Lies may momentarily save situations for us and make us feel good,but when their consequences begin to show up, *our song must definitely go sour*.
✍️
*In the light of the above therefore, live in such a way that your truth will not be in doubt.*
