Honesty

Honesty is very important. I think if you have a really good friend and they think they are the BEST singer in the world, but they really stink, than you should give them a gentle reality check, so they don't go and do something stupid like try-out for American Idol. In that case it's more important than kindness. But if there is something that you did that you would get in trouble for and you lied about doing it, than that's really bad. When I was 5 I remember getting some candy from the pantry right before dinner. I was living on the edge. My mom came around the corner and apparently wasn't as stupid as I thought. She asked me what I had in my pockets, and I said, "Nothing". I got in trouble for lying more than I would have if I came clean.
