"Always tell the truth. That way, you don't have to remember what you said."
Simplified meaning
If you always tell the truth, you won't need to worry about keeping track of different stories you might have told. Imagine if you told one friend that you were at the library, but you actually went to a movie. Later, you might forget what you said to your friend and accidentally mention the movie, causing confusion and possibly losing your friend's trust. By being honest from the start, you avoid creating any complicated lies that you have to remember later on. It's simpler and less stressful to be truthful because you don't have to juggle multiple false stories. This can help you build and keep trust with others, making your relationships stronger and more straightforward.
