The Funny Thing about Honesty. Continued.

I got very lucky here, folks. Things went much better than expected. In fact, I think we landed a best case scenario. That little lie, the omission, was rendered moot.  In the end the risk wasn't worth it though. So with the new information, I recommitted myself to the truth - going forward. Besides, apparently I don't listen well and someone needs to be there to actually get the information.  Can anyone tell me what spark plugs have to do with the human heart anyway??? But I digress, I may not have learned first hand with my little game of chicken, whether or not the lie made things better or worse. But I did realize it was unnecessary.  People are usually stronger than you give them credit for, and there's always a better way to deal.
