Today, I wrote him a note. I like what I wrote, so before I give it to my friend, I want to post it here so I can have it to read later

Not rough sounding, at all. I have lied on many occassions. I don't think I know how to live life without lying about some things. There are certain things that I hate to lie about--particularly to my superiors about work stuff. When it's the right thing to do, I will be honest. But there are many many personal things that I have lied to people about, and why shouldn't I? Why shouldn't anyone? Things left unsaid are not necessarily lies unless asked direct questions about them, so I'm not talking about that. Just the things we lie about in order to keep ourselves sane when dealing with others. Not lying for profit or gain or general trouble-making. There are myriads of bad lies, but I don't think all lies are inherently bad just because they're lies.
