Well today I had a talk with my friend Cheryl. She asked me some question, at first I didn't want to open up to her. But I feel like just letting it out to release some stress. At first my explaining wasn't really clear, which led to many different topic, and small confusion. But I realize why I been so depress or so quiet.
I realize human being is a terrible races. We are full of hatred, jealously, and anger. I begin questioning myself while I was talking to Cheryl. Why do we do stuff base on our feeling? If we do things or make decision base on personal feeling. Then what is the point of life? Why do we still go to school to learn what is right and wrong? I realize I am just like that. I do a lot of the things base on my feeling and my beliefs. But I never consider if that is the right thing to do. Simple as buying my Ipod. I want it, but I don't need it. But I convince myself that I NEED IT. Why did I do that? Because I am a Human Being, we are selfish. We are so focus on our self, we can not see the whole picture of a situation. A lot of people do not see that, they only see themselves. They think everything they do must satisfy their need.
But I don't blame them. That what make Human being so unique. If everyone is caring or always considering other's feeling, we won't have leaders like George Washington, Adolf Hitler, or Joseph Stalin. This world will be completely different.
With all these thinking and talking to my dad and other people, I learn that there isn't an answer to Right and Wrong. Because everyone have different feeling and different beliefs. Then how are we to say "he is wrong and I am right!"? My dad told me it is a simple matter, he gave me a good example, there is a driver with a two door car. It can only fit two person, himself included. So he stopped at by the side walk, there is a Pretty lady *which he loved for his whole life*, there is a doctor who saved his life before, and there is an old lady who is about to die unless she rush to the hospital. There is three different chose and all of them can be correct base on what you believe. You can choose to girl because you love her, or you can choose the doctor because he saved your life. Or you can choose the Old lady because she is dying. But this one guy may have another way to solve that question, then another has another. On and On, there is a infinite answer to that question.
Then he told me, because we have different thinking doesn't mean everything you believe in is true. In other people's eye, it can be wrong. It is up to you to convinces them that you are right. All you can do is learn and next time do it better if some people doesn't agree.
A lot of the laws are more like guide lines to life. Because of this example, if you got picked on by a guy on the street. He pretends/or does throw a punch at you. Your reaction is to hit him back. So you beat him up. You were not wrong, because it is self defense. But in other people's eye you are wrong because you choose to fight back. Some will think you are right because they think there isn't anything else you can do. So this situation has two different thinking, you have to think back on it and realize what you should have done or could have done instead. So you can gain other people's support
So What I'm trying to say is... There is no limit in life, there are many different solution to the same situation. It may be the first time you got into an accident, you may not make the smartest move, but next time you do better, and the third time you already know what to do. All you can do is find a way to do better and show other people that it is a correct ways for that situation. Don't be blinded by "I THOUGHT!, I DIDN'T KNOW!, or I WANT TO", Etc.
