The little white lies: I could not find where I had placed them today. I do not put them away in a place like the Bold Blue, and Bold Red lies I often try to avoid. The whites would be muddled. The face of lying is more subtle, tamed, and content; they are a smooth river rock and thrown so perfectly, causing small to medium-sized ripples. Slightly disrupted. But, not to say there was no effect would be lying to yourself. White lies are abused; after we do them, we talk with ourselves and say, “Don’t be twirling your pretty little head about it.”  “It only causes small ripples.” “I might have saved the Universe.” We all use white lies. Bad or Good? Both. Rules or Guidelines? Yes, there are. Suppose white lies were to get a nickname like an animal or one word like Snowman. What would you call your white lies? And how do you feel about them?

White lies are needed in our communication with others, from strangers on the street to family members to lovers and best buddies.

Ask yourself in your mind through a mindful process — will this white lie be beneficial? Will I hurt anybody? Could I tell the truth? Do I want to tell the truth? Would a big hug and gratitude do the job of a white lie?

It’s the dept, the strength of the foundation of the lie, your heart rate, and body signals that act as your measurement of the enormity of any lie; It would be best if you become aware of it. White lies can be our friend if we remind ourselves of these simple things: Should it be a truth? Will it cause chaos and mayhem? Would a hug and a thank you and an open discussion work?

I am not saying don’t use white lies. She is needed in many situations. Just be mindful—Check-in with yourself. Name the white lie. White lies aren’t going anywhere, but how they are handled is a daily exercise you will be jostling daily.
