Where’s the confusion?
I often hear
People say things like –
No one knows
What is right
And
What is wrong
It’s just a perception
Everything is right
& everything is wrong
It’s a matter of perspective – that’s all.
Really?!
Let me enumerate the wrongs –
Lying, Stealing, Cheating
Terrorizing, exploiting, killing
Smuggling, raping, murdering…
These are a few wrong things
Punishable crimes
Not only considered a crime
From the
Unheard, unseen, unknown
Almighty Creator
But also from the social law & order
Point of view
You get punished by the Law
Created by ‘We, the people’…..
Other wrongs are there too
Like
Ignoring, neglecting your duties & responsibilities
Towards fellow human beings
Those who are lesser aware, deprived, exploited
We never care….
Is this the reason – why we coin new philosophical words?
To defend ourselves…and pretend that –
Everything is right & everything is wrong..
It’s just a matter of perception!
I was asked this on Facebook:
Lying > Being truthful
Stealing > Work for a living
Cheating > Being honest in dealings
Terrorizing > spreading peace
Exploiting > using talents judiciously
Killing > Augmenting healthy living .
Smuggling> Transporting things lawfully/ paying taxes to Govt.
Raping > respectful towards the opposite sex/ marry & procreate
Murdering > Saving lives
