Honesty

One of my kids came home from school yesterday feeling pretty bad about something that happened during P.E.  They were playing a dodge-ball type game and when he was hit by the ball, he said he wasn't.  It didn't alter the outcome of the game, but it ate at him for the rest of the day.  He told me about it so that I could help him figure out what to do.  Today he is going to try to find the boy who threw the ball and apologize. 

This morning I watched the following video and was touched by the message.  Yes, I know we should be honest and I believe that standing up for honesty might help others choose that route as well.  A quick quote from the end of the video:  "We may deceive others, but there is One we will never deceive."
