Honesty is the best policy!

Georgina had a tapping feeling inside whenever she thought about stealing a dog. This feeling is her body telling her that she is doing something wrong. If you tell the truth in hard situations, it will feel better than lying.

Please share a time that it was hard to be honest, but you were honest anyway. How did you feel?
