Is it alright to do something wrong, if no one knows or finds out about it?
When we say to do something wrong means you have the intention to do it whether you caught or not. We are not perfect being that we don't make mistake in our lives. Often times, we made mistake every single day. It was unfortunate to know others that they commit crimes because they have no choice. They might have choices, but only lack good results.
In the first place, why are doing something wrong if we can do something righteously? I believe life is full of surprises, choices, and consequences. Whatever actions you did now, it is like a wave that travels until the shore and will only stop when it hits the end of the seashore. The water will go back again and collect your actions then waves back to the shore again.
Our actions ripple to the people around us and it will be very evident when the impact was already hit them. Many time when we made mistake and we know how it will impact our family, friends, classmates, and some people around us. I think we are very aware of how our actions will affect them, yet we still continue doing bad things.
Do you still remember the biggest and impactful action you ever done that it severely affected a lot of people? We all have this bad and impactful action. And I think mine was when my teacher caught my classmate cheating, and I was the one who were asked if he really did or not. I told them that I saw him handling a paper but I didn't know he is actually cheating. When he confessed that he cheated, he told that they are 8 of them.
How many times we do good for people whether intentional or not. The only thing that people will remember is our bad action. It is like you did 99 good actions, but the remaining 1 bad action is what people will remember to you. This is a sad fact that really happens until now. I wonder why people remember our bad deeds than good actions we did.
When we look closely, it is very unfair because your good actions will be swept by bad action. It will wipe out your good intentions done to the people. I wonder why people do that, even I remember the bad action done to me rather than their good intentions. I think there is a psychological explanation behind it. I just don't know what and how it works.
They say love covers it all, all your sins, all your mistakes, all your past, and all the things you done wrong. But what if the cover removes? It means everything that is cover in that part will be shown to others now. It will be bad if others saw your negative and dark side because one thing is for sure to happen. They will judge you for whatever it is.
But should we cover everything and hide it? We have many reasons why we should hide it and why we should tell it to others. But I think the best solution is depend on the situation and the heavy of your actions. As I said, we are not perfect. We made mistakes and we will make mistake in the other days. So how much try you cover it all, there will be a time when it will come out eventually.
There is no justification for doing something wrong and bad most especially if others life is affected or on the line. We must take note that before we make something wrong, be sure that no one will be be affected, but ourselves. When you do something wrong intentionally, always be prepared for something bad that comes back to you.
Also, why we will do something wrong in the first place? Is there no choice at all? If no one finds out about what you did, then it should be the last time you will do it because in the second time you will do it again. You might caught and be punished by it. Everything is in accordance to the law, and the law will make you disgraceful, humiliated and bad to all the eyes of people. And we know that we cannot bear that for long.
You are so welcome to become my sponsor. I would love to see you there in that block. Thank you po!
it's sad, but that is the sad reality of human nature. we cannot easily forget the bad things.
I also believe that in every action and decision we make, there are consequences.
that's right and those consequences should be faced and confronted.
This is great Dennis.
This is a reminder that whatever we do in our life, either bad or good, we should be ready to face all the consequences.
because if we are not ready to face the consequences , we will be called coward.
You've created an excellent content! I agree. People will remember your dark past and bad side, even though you've made on them a one hundred ten million good deeds. Society is sucks. However, we should remember that a mistake is no longer a mistake if it's repeatedly. It's no longer a mistake because it's specifically “intentional.” How could you say that the same mistake is a mistake again if the true definition of mistake is unintentional? am i right?
yes, mistake should be only happened once and when you made mistake the same again. then it is intentional.
It reminds me of people that post something in the internet and then regret it after. That is why we should not post things that we do not mean it in the first place.
the point is we have to be very careful so that we will not regret what we post online.
This rings true with what I always believe regarding ripples of our actions and words. Whatever we do or say, we should be responsible enough to face the consequences and be accountable for all our actions.
yes, it's hard if deny our actions and blame it to someone else. everything is a choice,
Some people don't care. Some people derive joy in doing something wrong and it's not good. I understand your point dear friend
it is not good if we found happiness by doing bad things because its very addictive.
"Our action ripples until it hits." Love it and I agree with your thoughts.
thank you, i just changed the title after an hour. hehe.
That's why I prefer hindi nalang maglalabas masyado para makaiwas ako sa marites sa paligid. Kahit kasi anong ganda pa yung nagawa or ginagawa mo, mas napupuna yung kamalian kahit isang beses lang. Yung talaga ang tatak sa utak nang tao.
At kung papipiliin ako, I preferred na itago nalang.
hindi ko rin po maintindihan kung bakit ang daming tao na gusto siraan ang iba, eh wala naman silang mapapala sa ganoong paraan. hindi naman sila aasenso at bayayarn kapag siniraan ang isang tao.
Nature na kasi talaga yata sa tao yun. Hahaha
There are mistakes talaga na gusto nalang natin itago kasi wala namang sense or benefits kung malalaman ng ibang tao. Siguro nga mas maganda nalang na itago natin ang mga pagkakamali natin.
tama po kuya. kapag kasi nakita nila yung dark past mo, either na husgahan ka or hindi ka na nila papansinin talaga.
I agree. No matter how good you are to the people around you, they won't still appreciate it and sometimes pay more attention to that one wrong actions that you did.
yes, it happened when people don't see the goodness in you and that's why we are careful to do bad things in front of them.
Just sad that people remembers more of our bad deeds than the good ones. But, indeed we all make our choices and our life depends on it.
