Should we always then be truthful and honest with absolutely everyone? Can love ever override these values at times?
Love overrides all in its path, but love walks though truth honestly. Love is unconcerned when an aspect of truth is left behind though while it's still loving. Love loves truthfully and fully without enforcing or forcing its own truths onto anyone else. Truth to me is only ever the truth of an individual knowing themselves.
Honesty is the giving of ourselves to another person and is not forcing our own truths onto them. They have their own truths to live from.
Truth and honesty are slightly different in the way that they can be given out to another person. We can remain honest without needing to give out our own truths to try to change others into believing or following our own truths. This then is being kindly loving rather than only being brutally truthful.
Honesty to be genuine is not anything extraordinary. When we love honesty genuinely we are never tired of following love honestly.
Love is extraordinary and so is honesty and yet they both remain neither extraordinary nor simple when they are followed from your own heart. They are just being themselves along with you being yourself. This is of course being extraordinary within the ordinary. We are all extraordinary in the sense of being unique individuals, and ordinary in the sense of all being equal parts of God. Create a feeling of honesty in yourself by allowing the truth of yourself to speak to you, and then just follow your own truth with love.
To follow love from your heart is not simple for the very reason that you are trying and struggling to follow it from your mind. When you live in your heart instead of following it from somewhere else, your mind and all else then follows your heart and not the other way around anymore. When living in your heart all the struggles of your mind are put behind you to melt away into the love that is now surrounding them from your heart.
