為什麼誠實會讓你更快樂？
How Honesty Could Make You Happier
🤔I’ve been keeping an honesty journal for the past several months. With honesty much in the news lately— you might even say honesty is having a cultural moment — I wanted to reflect on my own. My 6-year-old daughter once told me that telling the truth made her feel “gold in her brain.” Could upping my personal honesty light up a pleasure center in my own brain?
過去幾個月裡，我一直在記誠實日記。鑒於最近的新聞中有很多關於誠實的話題——你甚至可以說誠實迎來了文化上的敏感時刻——我也想反思一下自己的誠信情況。我六歲的女兒有一次告訴我，實話實說讓她覺得她的「腦袋裡有金子」。提高我本人的誠實度，能激活我大腦中的愉悅中心嗎？
🗣My focus on honesty at times did lead to better interactions with my husband. When the New York Times Magazine article about open marriage came out, for example, it sparked my curiosity. Since I was keeping an honesty journal, rather than keeping it to myself, as I would have done in the past, my husband and I had an honest discussion about it.
專注於誠實有時的確會讓我和我丈夫之間的交流得到改善。例如，當《紐約時報雜誌》登出關於開放式婚姻的文章時，我的好奇心被激發了出來。由於正在記誠實日記，我沒像以往那樣獨自琢磨，而是和丈夫就此進行了開誠布公的討論。
🤐Other times, the compulsion to be honest strained things between us. That I disagree with some of his parenting techniques doesn’t necessarily need to be pointed out every single time. I came to realize that, within relationships, there is a third category between dishonesty and telling white lies, called not sharing everything.
另外一些時候，說實話的衝動只會讓我們的關係變得緊張。我不認同他的育兒技巧這種實話，沒必要次次都說。我意識到，在伴侶之間，除了坦誠相待和撒些善意的小謊，還有另一種相處方式，那就是不要無話不談。
當我們有意識地停止說謊，身心會有什麼變化呢？
