Some people believe that it is best for people to be honest at all times. Others, however, believe that it is occasionally necessary to lie. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

Being honest all the time continues to be a controversial topic, just as lying sometimes propers in some situations as well as being honest. Both of them has strong arguments, which I will discuss now. On the one hand, showing the truths to others seems to be the right things as it means that you are showing your sincerity and showing that you are trustable. Anyone can believe in your words,

On the other hand
, lying is not bad at all times. It is not necessary to be honest if lying made the outcomes better. There are many cases that better to lie than saying the truth,
for instance

you would rather keep that secret. Another example is when someone asking for your opinion to ensure their decisions, we just only should

confirm their confidence. To conclude, being honest has benefits for socialization which require sincerity and trust whereas lying is a good outcome if it is the better results. So, in my point of view, it is acceptable to lie occasionally
