• You say lie, I say exaggerate. It’s all really a matter of
  perspective. I wouldn’t say I lie, exactly, because there is always a
  grain of truth in what I say. I will admit to exaggerating that grain
  into a pile of rice. Why? Only to make someone feel better. Is that
  wrong? I don’t think so. Not if it started with the truth (let’s say two
  people told you something) and the number increased in your brain,
  processed it and somewhere, somehow it came out of your lips as “six.”

  I don’t like LIARS, truly, if I find out that someone lied to me, I
  get crazy, so from now on, I will look at my own little white lies, even
  if it is to make someone feel better, and just tell the truth.

  As my kids would say “My bad.”
