Honesty is the Best policy

Hi,
On this Thursday (22/05/2008), a meeting was scheduled with our client. The time was not known to me. I have already informed about the same to my wife. On Wednesday, she was not feeling well. At morning on Thursday I asked her, what should I do, should I stay back or go to office (as meeting was scheduled). She told me since you have to attend the meeting you should go.

In the office I have contacted our representative & asked about meeting. He was not knowing it & assured me to check up & inform accordingly. Till evening I was not able to get the confirmation & thus at last I came to know that meeting was already taken place & there is no need to attend the same by us. I as surprised & felt sorry for my wife.

At around 5.oo p.m., I have contacted her & asked about her health & also told
her that somehow meeting was not on & it is cancelled. I expect that she will start blaming me, but to my pleasant surprise she says she is okay with it. Since I was not aware about it further I could easily make her fool by telling that I had meeting etc. etc. But since I have told her truth she was very happy.

I feel greatly relieved with her reaction.

Now I believe that Honesty is the Best Policy.
