I was just watching my buddy Daniels’ screen. There he was 40+, slightly on the plump side , almost bald and unable to climb the third floor when the lift was not working. Boxer ..my foot. Yet he could go on and on…for hours, one lie after the other. Later he would try to meet the girls he chatted with. Dunno how he could gather the guts but somehow he did.

So one day after numerous chats he decided to meet this one too. We waited for hours before we got a call. Hi! I would love to meet you but i have a confession to make…. ahh.. emm… I am not as young as I said. Well I could see a grin on Daniels face. “Its ok”, he said. So, how old are you?

53… THUD!!!!

Honesty is the human quality of communicating and acting truthfully related to truth as a value. This includes listening, and any action in the human repertoire — as well as speaking. Superficially, honesty means simply stating facts and views as best one truly believes them to be. It includes both honesty to others, and to oneself and about one’s own motives and inner reality. Honesty, at times, has the ability to cause misfortune to the person who displays it. Honesty can also mean fairness, and truthfulness, and the avoidance of misleading people.

Web and honesty are a rare combination. Judging by my personal experiences I am afraid extremly rare.

So I thought why not create a new word. Who knows it might become a movement one day :).

My crusade is about WEB+HONESTY = “WONESTY”.

If all works well, some years from now people wud say ..hi I am xyz and I am Wonest.

Average homosapien spends 3-4.5 hours on the Internet. At any given time 15% of humanity is not practicing “WONESTY”.

Imagine …Trades, deals , chats ,confessions, promises, miracle cures, tourism, counselling etc etc .. All aided and abetted by dishonesty in the real and “DISWONESTY” in the virtual world.

Well! we might end up spending 15% of our lives in an unreal, DISWONEST virtual world. Scary!! isn’t it?

But then imagine if Daniel was honest. OH for gods sake I know its difficult to imagine that but hypothecially. Then the conversation would go like this…

It is hard to believe that a man is telling the truth when you know that you would lie if you were in his place. ~Henry Louis Mencken, A Little Book in C Major, 1916.
