Truth n hypocrisy

As an 8 year old I was taught that truth and honesty are virtues which should be embodied by every human being . I tried following this piece of education but today after 14 years the world wants me to unlearn this lesson as soon as possible if I want to achieve success , in short they want me to become " practical". I believed that everyone wanted me to become practical as they feared that i would set a wrong example of a person who believed in his ideals and yet without compromising on them succeeded , so with this belief i continued tugging along this path of truth believing that god would help me always n truly speaking he has helped me except on a few occasions which matter most.
However this past month I have started to waver in my belief , it seems all these ideals n virtues are nothing as even rab does not seem to be interested in upholding them, even the almighty seems to want that humans continue to live in this hypocrisy wherein they'll have a gurudwara in their college and yet will continue to practice the exact opposite of what the holy book teaches, they'll hold seminars on truth and yet if someone dares to speak it he would be labelled as a "choudhary" by the very headmaster of the institution and inspite of all this the parmata seems to remain a mute spectator.
I have written this piece of crab as i just beg of the lord that atleast he help me understand my mistakes, the reasons due to which I continue to be humilated be defeated because now It seems to me that maybe all these virtues of truth n honesty have been created just to allow we humans to satiate our rare bouts of consciousness and are not values which need to be practiced in lives.
