Honesty And Objectivity (H & O)

There are not any higher values than honesty and objectivity in life for they lead to the grandfather of them both: Integrity. With that said, I plow on through this article with a full understanding of what causes genuine virtue to happen, and the core of all scandals. The core of all scandals is subjective God-playing judgments and dishonesty with yourself about what is really going on. Integrity is the power behind all viable reality, without it, however, you put it, everything is just a mere fantasy mired with lies.

Recently, I was looking at the histories of old Watergate scandal figures in the administration of United States President Richard Milhous Nixon, and thinking about a television show I saw with actress Reese Witherspoon starring in it called “Little Fires Everywhere” and I was thinking about this fact: It is one thing to look like you have integrity and act as you have it. But to have it is the genuinely hardest thing in the universe because it takes gut-wrenching honesty and objectivity that create the integrity that makes a “fantasy act” look very appealing to those who do not have integrity, honesty, or objectivity.

Transparency starts with reality from top to bottom, there are not any exceptions. Some people like to think that there are exceptions, and that is where the genuine trouble always starts or “the little white lie” about the reality that turns into little fires everywhere that burn down the total fantasy ultimately.

When life gets complicated, simple and workable solutions are the best. The complicated Rube Goldberg cartoon steps come genuinely from avoidance of reality anyway, really. I mean, think about that for a moment.

Honesty And Objectivity (H & O)

Once I saw a television show where a man tried to cover up a murder, and got caught cleaning up fingerprints in an obsessive way by the very authorities he was trying to avoid and got caught “accidentally” which brings me to a point: Clean up your lies with untraceable white gloves, and even if you do not get immediately caught, the sappy, guilty, unclean mind that did it is still there saying “it is there, it is your sore thumb, and there is no nay cure except for the truth for starters.”

The perfect crime and the perfect virtue are the same: Transparency, not hiding things, and being real, right? I should think so. Because, honesty and transparency are the highest order of virtue when you do right anyway and if you did wrong, the same thing only you still did wrong. Or to quote The Band in the song “Calendonia Mission”, “old dark Arkansas” to metaphorically show the reality that truth and honesty cannot be escaped. Delayed maybe, but not escaped.
