Fake appearnece

I just came across a very interesting article. I am not going to discuss the subject matter of the article as it is out of context for me, but it has a message which is of great value. It is said that there was a very pious man, living in a village in a small cottage. He used to spent most of his time in prayers. One of his friend got a summon and had to leave for the city but he didn't trusted anyone to leave his wife with. After considering the matter, he decided to leave her at that pious persons place. The wife was sent to his house to stay with other ladies. One night the pious man got thirsty and asked for water from home, but his wife was busy so the friends wife gave him water. When he saw her hands he could not control himself and his mind started bad imaginations about his friends wife. He stayed in this condition for a while and then realised his sin. He got very worried and went to another pious person for help. The other man told him about a person in another village who could help him to get out of that state. So he went to that person. When the pious person saw that man, he appeared to be drinking wine while sitting with his young son. The pious person told him the whole sin story and that person told him the remedy. While leaving that place the pious person asked him that why are you giving the appearance of drinking Wine while you are drinking only soft drink. That person replied because I don't want others to leave their wives with me and thus put me in the trouble by falling for a stranger and deceive a trust. What I got from the above story is that we tend to pretend and thus deceive others. We lie and try to hide our sins. Humans are greedy by nature and want to get things from other person's plate while might got better on own plate. I am trying to be a bit diplomatic, leaving it to reader to take meaning out of the words. But the message is very obvious one has to present as he/she is, in reality. The difference in words and acts is a good diplomacy for short time only and people do get caught :P, if not then Almighty is watching and is upto Him. So instead of putting one self in a controversery by not speaking or hiding the truth, it's always a better strategy to come up with a true appearance , and thus avoid the later consequences. One has to be very careful in matters that creates impressions and counters other humans. People speak lies out of fear of fellow beings. But they dont realise the simple fact that we are after all curious humans and not angels. A single lie can lead to a total collapse of life. If people can get judgemental of our right things so can they of the wrong ones, like a true false and false true detection test. So say what you really are and do as you say.
