善意的謊言之我見 My View on White Lies

Actually, the question about whether we should tell white lies in our daily life has always been an intense debate over these years. Different people have different opinions.
事實上，關於我們是否應該在日常生活中說善意的謊言，這些年來一直是一個激烈的爭論。不同的人有不同的觀點。

Many people believe that we need tell white lies in some moments in our life due to kindness in order to avoid hurting others’ feelings. White lies have magic power to give people much hope and warmth. For instance, if you tell the truth to a patient who gets incurable disease, he would feel much despaired. On the contrary, if you tell white lies to him, he can probably enjoy the rest of his life more hopefully and more peacefully. However, others argue that no one should tell lies, no matter what kind of lies. And they also contend that everybody should know the truth about himself in any cases. A white lie is essentially a lie. People may feel betrayed when they know the truth eventually. And more seriously, it can wreck a precious relationship.
許多人認爲，爲了避免傷害他人的感情，我們在生活中有時候需要一些善意的謊言。善意的謊言有一種魔力，給人帶來希望和溫暖。例如，如果你告訴一個得了不治之症的病人真相，他會感到絕望。相反，如果你對他說了善意的謊言，他可能會更有希望、更平靜地享受他的餘生。然而，另一些人則認爲不管是什麼樣的謊言，任何人都不應該說謊。他們還主張，在任何情況下，每個人都應該知道自己情況的真相。善意的謊言本質上就是謊言。當人們最終知道真相時，他們可能會覺得被背叛了。更嚴重的是，可能會破壞一段珍貴的關係。

As far as I am concerned, whether we should tell lies really depends on its result may be caused. When we tell a white lie, we had better take into consideration what the occasion at that time is and what the result it brings.
在我看來，我們是否應該說謊真的取決於它可能造成的結果。當我們說善意的謊言時，我們最好考慮一下當時是什麼情況，可能會帶來什麼樣的後果。
