The first step towards true honesty is to stop lying to yourself; so long as you continually lie to yourself, you shall continually lie to everyone else as well - your very being can become the lie, as though you were two cold frogs and three hot toads croaking out "what you believe" from the cover of your bog, wholly unawares that the higher beings thinking in language have a larger more complete picture of the world, and you live in a bog. Truth comes forth in the opening created by art in an essential sense; and it also means that words match with experiential events that occur. Dissimulation and the wearing of masks is what polite society cares more about than truth, and it is here where your honesty comes into play - as a matter of appearance, to hide the toad warts, honesty becomes so very important....and then there are those Monks who's very being is the essence of truth itself, like that opening up within Art; for them these labels are as the words of children, but they take pleasure in what they are regardless of capitol letters or not great wording (what were you disappointed about?), or things like the croaking of bog toads that must be suffered in silence (back to the bog with you toad!).
I like that your post had 5 comments and now with this meta comment it'll have 6 (meta-comments are counted along in the same tally as comments) which will mean your post is best - 6 comments baby...

I agree with you about the subject matter, honesty. :)
