Why Policy of Truth?

It's a simple title really, and a simple motto, and a great song, but it's very hard to live by it.
So how do you do it?
One step at a time.
You start with being truthful with yourself.
Sometimes that is the hardest part of all.
You can tell the truth to everyone else in the world but if you lie to yourself it will all go for naught, and it wil poison everything else.
The truth it is said wil set you free.
But it will also bind you.
Some people do not like the truth they will hide from it, they will shun it, they will lie.
That is why the Policy of Truth is so important.
Truth for Truth's sake should be a goal.
Why?
Because reality dear friends is something we must all confront.
