Great post! I have a couple of stories to share. Small lies can easily lead you on a path to big lies. I had a friend who lied all the time about the smallest things. It really bothered me and I confronted him about it. I told him that small lies often lead to questions which mushroom into bigger lies but if you start with the truth, the path remains clear. He's married now and having a lot of issues... so still working on him! Another example of why small matters happened to me this week. I received a 0.15 SBD payout that normally would not seem of much value but because SBD had spiked I was able to go to the market and exchange the 0.15 SBD for more than 1 Steem. The Steem price then also rose so my initial payout of pennies had become $1.91 in a matter of hours. Think about 1, 5, 10 years from now how much will that 1 Steem converted from 0.15 SBD be worth! The story of Jesus pointing out the widow's small donation as the most generous is a great lesson. Many times people with very little means are often the most generous people. Thank you Papa-Pepper!

Nice illustration with current events on steemit! Also, thanks for caring about your friend enough to say something, as somehow that is also becoming a lost art.

@otage and @papa-pepper I read somewhere in a world of lies telling the truth is revolutionary. Honestly it hurts still when people lie to your face. Small lies hurts just the same
