Do you agree or disagree there are times lying is acceptable?
We are inherently honest and may easily blush when telling a lie at young age. But as the time elapses, lie has become a daily routine, which is randomly spoken out when we feel it necessary to refuse other’s request. Some strict integrity will never condone lying for its impure motivation, but pondering about all the situations, I deem highly that there are times when lying are acceptable.
Undoubtedly, even some benevolent people tell lies to console people to conceal some catastrophe to the victims, and to avoid hurting feelings of people involved. For instance, once a vital exam was impending and I was concentrating on preparing for it, but unfortunately, one of my intimate relatives was seriously ill and as a consequence, all the family members were worried and anxious about his emergency. Not wanting me to distract from the exams, they concealed the calamity and just tell me there were only some mishaps with him. Needless to say, they told me a white lie. Acting on a benign motivation, nevertheless, they were indeed helping me prepare for the exams. If they were to be honest and tell me the perilous situation, I would have hardly engrossed in studying. Consequently, the result of the exam would have been terribly disappointing. Fortunately, the fact is that I knew nothing about the relative until the exam finished and months later, we got a reciprocal result: a high mark in the exam and the recovery of the relative.
   Even though some lies are really malicious which hurt me severely, I do not turn for protection to blame him. It is unavoidably to err, when someone gets used to lying, lying will become an instinct when they talk with others. They are lying simply because they feel internally unsafe. Telling lies is only the psychology of them to preserve their privacy, even though this means hurting others. Fully understanding their incentive, I will forgive them and forget what they said. Pity is that they lie even without the basic realization. Hence, they are somehow victims who deserve our equal sympathy other than chiding.
   Considering the two circumstances above, there are really sometimes when lying is acceptable. White lies and those lies spoken out instinctively are the ones which need special understanding and tolerance.

Lie means one does not speak the truth. Most times lies do more harm than good to our community. In a court, a false testimony may ruin a decent and unnocent person's reputation and physical freedom. In a battle, a lie may lead to blooding and death without any value. Lies often causes troubles.
But on some occasions, a lie serves better than a truth. A small piece of bandage tape applying on the arm or leg may comfort and sooth a toddler even if no cut occurred on his limbs. Moms often tell her babies fairytales which always live in dreams. Doctors sometime need to comfort his patients by disguising the truth. On the battle field, you have to confuse your enemy by distributing  false information.
I still remember my grandpa's lie. In his last days, I came to visit him with a modest present including a package of double hilariousness brand cigarette produced in Wuhan. Everybod knows the Yunnan tobaco has the best reputation. But my grandpa said to my uncles that the double hilariousness is the one most riches enjoyed before 1949. That word silent the site and prevent me from the embarrassment of tight budget.
Lies, if out of good and motivation, serves better than truth at many occasions.
