 Quite recently I have heard something, it’s about Truth and Lie, I found it very funny; and so I thought of sharing it. Well, for every reader here, this is it, someone said that Truth went to a river for a cooling off swim, and a little while after, Lie went for a swim at the same place, in the same river as well. And then, Lie finished his swimming first, and dressed up himself with Truth clothes. Consequently, when Truth got finished, he noticed that his clothes had gone, and Lie’s clothes had left there instead of his. Then he says I’ll go naked before I wear Lie’s clothes. And that’s what had given birth to this phrase:  “THE NAKED TRUTH!”

When I heard it I could hardly stop myself from laughing, because as from a child I heard it, but I never knew where it came from; until last week when I’ve heard a Jamaican said it. Hence, that I said is also “The Naked Truth! 

How short is a short story? I suppose that's anybody's guess!

I HAVE ALWAYS HEARD THE TERM, 'THE NAKED TRUTH' AND DIDN'T KNOW THAT IT HAS A STORY BEHIND IT. I JUST THOUGHT IT MEANT, DO NOT 'DRESS UP' A LIE, TELL IT LIKE IT IS. THANKS FOR THE HUMOROUS STORY BEHIND IT...SO - DID IT ACTUALLY ORIGINATE IN JAMAICA? JUST WONDERING. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH TO YOU AND YOURS...JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS
