I feel like I am a good person but lately I have been questioning it. Meaning why be a good person? What does it really get you? I have been wondering with the actions of others how they are able to sleep at night which I then find myself not able to sleep because I am laying there thinking about it. I believe you treat people how you want them to treat you and I am teaching my students that as well but is that Old fashioned?
I feel like some people in the world are playing the game of Life like they are in the "Hunger Games" or something out to survive for themselves so it's alright for them to take from others whatever it is that they need at the moment to survive. Is that how life is suppose to be now? If so my class would be chaotic with each one of them taking blocks from one another....chairs out from underneath others....goodness I don't even want to try and think of what else that would cause. I wouldn't want any of that for any of the kids.
So what changes? When we become adults, is that when it's alright to take from others? I feel like excuses are made constantly and you, the good person, just have to deal with it because that just what you are suppose to do. You know if the actions were turned around and you were to do the same thing they wouldn't like it.... so why is it alright?
I understand the whole put yourself in their shoes....everyone has bad days here and there...but...one shouldn't constantly walk all over others right?
I feel like there has been no one to really trust, like one minute they are one your side and the next, well you just need to get over it because they are on their side of things.
Just my thoughts of the day. Feel free to comment below your thoughts!
