...To delineate the times that lovers miss,
...A thousand dreams can't beat a single kiss.

Please ignore if you still don't feel so as may be we have different thoughts relating to these lines
I think what it means by "kind but not dishonest" is that at times we can be dishonest in an attempt to be kind, like when you're polite or kind to someone but you really don't respect them or respect the choices they make, yet in order to be kind and not mean you don't say anything so you're being fake... Dishonest... And to treat your flesh like your temple but not your true self is saying we are more than just our flesh, what you see in the flesh isn't who we are.

1 I also had a problem with this. Is it that we should try to be kind without having lie about anything.
2 This is a warning that it is good to care for our bodies but should bear in mind that they are destructible and that our true self is our soul/spirit which lasts for ever.

It is however, very relevant although demonstrating timeless principles.
Liked it very much indeed. Thank you.
