I do not believe lies should be used only for our convenience because that is wrong and selfish. If a small lie is told with intentions of protecting someone‚ than that is acceptable. In the book‚ My Sister’s Keeper by Jodi Picoult‚ the mother does not tell her daughter that her boyfriend has passed away. When the daughter asks where he has been‚ she simply

    struggling against an apparently incurable ailment‚ words of encouragement and hope‚ strengthening his willpower and thereby increasing his chances of survival would better serve the spirit of truth than literally and heartlessly repeating the medical verdict. Such truthfulness is worse than an outright lie. Similarly‚ if there is estrangement between two closely related parties or persons‚ each feeling uncompromisingly righteous‚ the ends of truthwill be better served by acting as a bridge through
