Why People Are Not Honest.

[Ampong2121]

Can I ask why people are not honest. As in, why is it that people don't keep to their words even when they can do so? Can't I just do business with someone without signing papers and get lawyers and witnesses and still keep to my words? Can't we get trustworthy people anymore?

People now a days are selfish and thats the reason why they are lying, because they want that they are good in the eyes of people. When it comes to money people are not honest, even if you have witness sometimes they will pay your witness so that the true will not come out.

Kalau saya tidak jujur mungkin di situasi yang terdesak untuk tidak jujur .tidak semua yang tidak jujur itu jahat atau negatif . ada juga yang tidak jujur itu baik . misalnya tidak jujur karena menolong orang.

Fear. Fear of survival. " I have to stay alive at all costs and I am afraid that I won't survive if I don't lie" mentality. If it works, and they get away with it,  then that leads to greed. Like,  "hey, I got away with that and made some kind of profit.  I need more, and more and more or I will die, " mentality.

And then becomes a habit and a way of life
 
Fear to Greed to Habit and Life Style. And then if they do survive and not die, they're life will be miserable no matter how much money, sex, or possessions they have.

The soul becomes haunted.
The trouble is some people can live many life times with a haunted soul.

Sometimes a successful but dishonest people stumble into an awakening. Sometimes people find a mentor to show the way. Sometimes babies are just born more this way and inspire their parents.
There's always hope we'll all get the message to be free, and have a clear conciousness,  is the best wealth.
