What leads us to be a terrible person? What pushes us to do terrible things, to lie, to ditch a friend? What causes us to stab a person in the back, to walk away, to not listen? What makes us do evil things in the world? What motivates a person to rob a bank, to murder someone, to break the law?
Well think it over. The reality is that there is no reason; it's just the choice, between good or bad. It is the one moment you get a chance to make your life better or worse by doing the right or wrong thing. Now don't get fooled, still remember in the end how your life rolls out is uncontrollable. But if we were clever enough to stop and take the time before making a choice, we could change are life for the better, and keep from doing those terrible things that people despise you for. Unfortunately this world is not that clever as you may know. The problem is not many bad people actually remember the moment when they came across that choice. They were probably too focused and motivated by something to think. They never would have had the time to stop and run their thoughts through before they lied, or decided to ignore a friend. They never would of second thought before breaking into the bank, or stabbing an innocent person. They didn’t, they don’t, and no one does. So that's just life. Nothing you can do about it. But now I wonder why do we still always feel guilty when you do something bad? Why do you get mad and upset at the bad people? Of course it's because they made the wrong choice, but can't choosing to be a bad person be just a mistake? People make mistakes all the time, and we aren’t locking them up in jail because of it. Making a mistake in this world is not a crime. It is still obviously that if someone murdered a person or robbed a bank they should be punished. It is commonsense to be mad at a person that lied to you or ditched you. In the end this world is confusing, and you must agree. So it’s best to not ponder too much on the little things. Because when it comes to thoughts like these the only thing to do is remind yourself that this is just life. Life will be, like it or not, a confusing, unfair, unreasonable, unbelieving, puzzling, unknown thing, and that is never going to change.
