honesty

In saying you are honest does that make you dishonest or ignorant of your own dishonesty. Cos nobody can be truly honest or can they.

You are, in fact, honest if you accept your dishonesty, among other flaws in your character. You become honest when you're self-conscious of what you do and what you think; if you examine why you do the things you do, and why you feel things in a certain way, and so on.

Yep go with you on that wander we have to be honest about being dishonest to be honest. Only by honesty inside can we be honest on the outside I reckon. Whats veiwing the honesty or lack of it is our real self so if someone says that they are honest then it has to be ego the false self talking.
