Dear John:

You wrote that your definition of honesty is “quite liquid depending on individual”. I don’t understand what you mean by it?

Dear John:

You shared earlier this month the following about an experience you had with your mother when you were a child: “One day I found her lying on the kitchen floor, pretending unconscious. I panicked ran for help to my brother, he was slow, when I came back she was happily standing smiling saying it was a joke because I was naughty”-

If honesty is “quite liquid depending on the individual”, and “each individual sees honesty differently… It (honesty) means something else to everybody”-

does it mean that in that childhood experience that I quoted above, your mother may have been honest when she pretended to be unconscious, and that you may have been dishonest, that is, you only pretended to panic and get your brother’s help, depending on who  is thinking about it. That is, there is no  objective answers to who was honest and who was dishonest in this example?
