#2 Do not think it worthwhile to produce belief by concealing evidence; for the evidence is
sure to come to light.

The truth will always prevail. In some way, or somehow the truth will eventually come
out no matter how good our lie is. Telling the truth gives us peace of mind, and clears our
conscience meaning after we have stated the truth there is no burden that is left in us or we have
nothing to worry about. For instance, instead of going to school, you go to the computer shop to
play computer games and your lying about it to your parents. Your parents will eventually
discover it after you have reached a number of absences then your adviser or teacher might
contact your parents and raise a concern, or it can reflect on your grades, you will have a very
low grades then your parents will know everything. However, if we choose to tell the truth or
stick to the truth, there is nothing we should worry about. For the reason that we lied about going
to school, it could make us worry about what might happen if our parents will eventually know
it. In contrast, if we have told them the truth, then we already gave ourselves a chance to change,
or to stop the wrong things that we are doing, and our parents can do something about it. As a
result, our conscience is clean, and we are worry-free, because the truth will always set us free.
