There used to be a saying in China, "A gentleman's word is past recalling." It means that a moral person should do what he says to everyone, never go back on his word, and never keep his word. Honesty and trustworthiness, to say all the efforts to do, is the Chinese and foreign circles have been proud of the traditional virtue.

During the Spring and Autumn Period, there was a man named Zeng Zi in the State of Lu. He was deeply educated by Confucius. He was not only highly learned, but also honest and would not lie to anyone, not even his children. One day, Zengzi's wife wanted to go to the street. Her son was crying and wanted to go. The wife coaxed him by saying, "You wait for me at home. The child fell for it. When her wife came back, she saw Zeng Zi sharpening his knife to kill a pig. She quickly stopped him and said, "Are you really going to kill a pig for him to eat? I was trying to trick him!" But Zeng Zi said earnestly, "How can you deceive a child? Everything we do and say affects them. If we break our word, they won't listen to us in the future." Later, Zeng Zi really killed a pig for his son to eat stew meat. Our every move affects the children around us, we are not good, they will not be good, we are good, they will be good. For our partners, with the flowers of the motherland, we must set an example, in front of them to do a good example.

A customer once walked into an auto repair shop and identified himself as a driver for a transportation company. "Put more parts on my bill, and I'll reimburse you, and you'll get a cut." "He said to the shopkeeper. But the owner refused the request. But, the customer again pester say: "MY BUSINESS IS NOT SMALL, I will certainly often come, YOU CAN certainly earn a lot of money!" The shopkeeper told him, "I wouldn't do that for anything." At this time, the customer angrily shouted: "Anyone would do that, I think you are too stupid." The shopkeeper was so angry that he told the customer to leave at once and talk about the business. Suddenly, the customer smiled with satisfaction. He shook the shopkeeper's hand with admiration and said, "Actually, I am the owner of that transportation company. I've been looking for a regular, reliable repair shop that I'll be coming to more often." Honesty and credibility let people appreciate a mountain deep. Honesty is a kind of shining character.

When Lenin was eight years old, one day, while playing at his aunt's house, he accidentally broke his aunt's vase. When the aunt would get home and see it, she gathered the children together and asked: "Who broke the vase?" Out of fear, little Lenin counted with the other children: "Not me!" Later, Lenin's mother knew that he did it, but did not say to him, just every day to tell him about the story of the virtue of integrity, one day, in the middle of his mother's speech, suddenly, little Lenin cried, he told his mother ashamed: "Mom, I'm sorry, I cheated aunt, that vase is I broke." Mother comforted Lenin patiently, she helped him write a letter of apology to his aunt, especially to apologize to the aunt. Later, the aunt forgave Lenin and praised him as a brave boy. It can be seen that honesty not only communicates people's hearts, but also sets up a bridge of understanding between people.

People in the social life, always have to face all kinds of temptation, not heartache, not for its, although plain as clouds, plain as water, but to promote the trust of others to you and you speak good faith good habits, then how much money can not buy!
