Truth Vs. Lie
In an extremely difficult situation is it better to tell the truth or lie? I mean is it better to hide the truth? I do not believe so because I feel that honesty is most important in any situation. For example, if I am in a burning building where some people have already got killed by the fire and I need to get someone out who is looking for another person I witnessed get killed, I am not going to lie and say that they got out. After I get them out what are they going to do when they do find out then? I would rather tell them that person did not make it out and the continue helping them out. They can either except it an leave or freak out and run. I feel like it is better to tell them then because if they get out of the building and then find out anything can happen. Being honest is always better than a lie because the truth will always come out sooner or later.

Sara, be careful to proofread your writing. You do have a truly captivating example. I think it would be incredibly difficult to tell someone in that situation that their loved one is lost.
