Honesty: sincerity and honesty. Letter: that is, keep your promise and keep your word. The basic meaning of honesty is telling the truth, doing honest things and being honest.
I remember an intriguing fable:
A young man who thought he had succeeded after a long journey in life came to a ferry with seven bags of health, honesty, talent, alertness, money, beauty and honor on his back. The old ferryman was very happy to see him carrying an "honest" bag and promised to use only three copper coins. Unexpectedly, the ship encountered a big storm in the middle of the river, because the overweight old ferryman asked the young man to abandon a bag. The young man hesitated and finally abandoned "honesty", and the old ferryman's eyes flashed with disappointment. When it's calm, the young man asks the old man to row a boat to take him across the river quickly, but the old man wants money as a reward and health to make him strong. But the young man had no choice but to give him money and health and snatched all his bags at once. The young man cursed the ferryman for not keeping his word. The ferryman retorted, "Why be honest with people who don't want to be honest?" Then he jumped into the water. The young man regretted it on the boat. After a while, the ferryman came out of the water "honestly" and returned all seven bags to the young people. After sending him to the other side, when he left, the ferryman repeatedly told the young man not to lose his integrity because he was honest.
From this story, we can see that one cannot lose his honesty at any time. No one will talk about honesty with people who don't speak honesty. In the ocean of life, only honesty is the ferryman.
With honesty, the light of a match can light up a sky; With honesty, a small leaf can be dumped for a season; With honesty, a drop of water can also reflect the brilliance of the sun. ...
Walking on the long road of life, carrying the bags of honesty and grasping the fruits of honesty will lead to higher and further progress.
