Wrong is Wrong

There are a few that define me and how I live life by. First and foremost, the oldest in the book.

Treat others as you would like to be treated

So simple. Yet society, with the onset of social media, have attacked it. And rather than talking things out we’ve become a world of ghosts. It may be easier for you to click that block button, but maturity comes with understanding. While understanding comes with communication.

I would never do this to someone I claimed to have cared for. Nor someone I have a disagreement with that can be worked out with a simple conversation. As a victim of ghosting myself, I’m all too aware of the pain, unanswered questions, grief and the lengthy healing process that follows to do that to anyone else.

Voting

Voting is another and it frustrates me when others don’t. I’ve voted in every general election I could since I’ve turned of age. I may have missed a couple primaries but not the big one.

My frustration comes when those that don’t vote complain about something that they don’t like. If you want change in your favor, then by golly get out and vote. Plain and simple.

Making others happy

If you’ve read any of my blogs, you know what I’ve been through. Mentally, physically and emotionally they haven’t been the best of times as being happy has been limited.

Knowing my own struggles, I’ve found myself rooting others on. And in doing so I find more happiness knowing I’m helping someone feel better.

One other thing that’s self-explanatory

Always remember: Wrong is wrong, even if everyone is doing it. Right is right even if no one is doing it. Do right.

Now tell me ‘What principles define how you live?‘
