How far is honesty overrated?

Honesty is a very important quality in life. Whenever we meet someone, we tend to wonder if that person would ever lie to us. Besides, trustful is the best adjective to describe anyone. So, how far is being honest with our friends and family, but most importantly to ourselves is overrated?

First of all, in order to maintain a healthy relationship, honesty should be worked out, otherwise, there would remain a reputation of a liar and nobody wants to be surrounded by false people. Among families, honesty needs to work both ways, parents should encourage their children from a young age to tell the truth considering that lying hangs over and covering it up can be very stressful, therefore sometimes it is better to admit when things got messed up and deal with it. After all, the line between telling the truth and hurting feelings is very thin, yet it is less damaging than a lie.

When discussing ourselves, honesty is the key to success, is a daily, hourly, even by-the-minute practice. The practice is being conscious of what we’re doing and asking ourselves why we’re doing it.  At any given moment, maybe we should ask, what story are we telling ourselves? Especially in moments of difficulty, being honest with yourself means separating yourself from your personal narrative since it is the only way to straight up and face reality. Furthermore, for self-improvement, we need to be honest to us,  otherwise, the only thing you could achieve is a short term happiness or relief that actually is really unhealthful and destructive

All in all, nowadays it is very important, to be honest. From my point of view,  it is the best quality of life. Also, I lose a lot of confidence in people who lied to me once. Lying in the least can shunt losing valuable friendships and not only that still, I think that if you enjoy lying, not only you are hurting your friends and loved ones but also yourself and your self-esteem

Is it true or not?

Learning history is fundamental, yet it is very complicatef to know the truth about past events. Fortunately, evidence has been founded to prove many facts and made them real. Howevee, historical information may somentimes be taken from cultures beliefs so the truth will never be known

On the one hand, evidence is essential for reasearch. It proves wether a belief is valid or not. Nevertheless, it may be struggling to find evidence or even understand it since it can be brocken or since some objects are from many years ago. All in all, evidence is helpful anwering doubts, besides new questions may arise

On the other hand, cultures may have altered history. No one can never know if passwd genreations changed information. Besides, words are very powerful so one simple mistake in a sentence can change de hole meaning. Moreover, people could also have neen convinced by others points of view. Cultures may had also exaggerate or alter rumours. So, the truth, will depend on personal opinions

To conclude, it is tricky to know the truth historical facts, however from my point of view, evidence can never lie, since it is physically real and it is more reliable than roumours created by old generations

Dams






‼ The things that could be avoided are that larger dans are more expensive, so if they build a smaller or a normal size dans that would be more cheap. There will be less natural environment destruction and the people wouldn't move from their homes since they didn't need so much space. Farmers wouldn't spend so much money on fertilizers, they only spend the necessary.

Well known dam
El Carrizal is located dam in the upper middle course of the Tunuyán River, in the north-central part of the Province of Mendoza, Argentina, upstream of the city of Rivadavia. Next to the lake there are 2 locations El Carrizal on the west bank and Villa San Isidro on the east bank. Its reservoir measures about 15 × 5 km, and the maximum water level is at 785.5 meters above sea level. it is used to regulate the flow of the Tunuyán River, which has glacial sources from the Andes, and to irrigate a very arid region. The water mirror is a tourist destination, where you can take a fishing, windsurfing, sailing, etc. Camps are held on its banks. Over time the reservoir has decreased its retention capacity due to the large accumulation of sediments, which affects the distribution of water in its area of ​​influence.

Different lifes

In the video, two different life routines are shown. One of a boy who lives in a water rich country and one who lives in a water-poor country. The girl, who lives in a shanty town, has to travel miles to fill a bottle with water from a river which is very dirty. Hwever, the boy from the water-rich country fills his bottle from a machine and the water is pottable. In the end, the boy travels to where the girl lives, as I think that the boys is aware of  the problems in the country where the girl lives, and while he is there he changes the bottles replacing the dirty with the pottable. I think that all the world needs to do what the boy has done, not only because it is a good action but also because water is needed for life on Earth, for girls like the one in the video to live. The word has to help each other, organizations like the UN, because its not fair for the ones that don´t have availabilty.
