I'm a pretty honest person. When I was in elementary school, the teachers at my private school picked a character trait that they thought described each child in their class each year. It was a trait they saw in the child, and they gave our parents a certificate with our name and our chosen character trait. I have four character trait certificates. Three years I received "Honesty." The fourth year I mixed it up a little: "Truthfulness." That being said, I need to be honest for a minute. I think I have a problem with honesty. I know! I was surprised, too, when I realized it. But it's not what you think. So before you start trying to figure out what lies I may have told you, let me explain. You know how you can look back and realize something that happened to you would teach you a lesson one day? There are several moments in my life that helped come to the realization that my elementary school certificates might be invalid... Texas, Fall 2008...
