FRIDAY NOTIONS
Right vs. Wrong
The notion that people just go with the flow
Seriously? We’re still debating this in 2022. Most of us finally learned this lesson one way or another before we reached middle age.
It started about the age of three and continued to impress this principle upon us until we pick an age; it seems different for everyone. Actually, the age that one finally learns this is the same age at which others realize that this person has a lot of wisdom.
So, why do we keep learning and re-learning this lesson over and over again? Some of us firmly learn this lesson by the time we’re ten or so. Others keep looking for a shortcut or loophole to operate within.
At some point, if this lesson is not learned, it can even lead to imprisonment. Yet, surprisingly, even those that have paid the price of time still haven’t learned the lesson. We call those people repeat offenders.
So, can we agree that this principle is not just a notion? It’s not someone’s dream or freshly minted thought.
This is one of the most basic principles of our existence. Understanding this principle will refresh your soul and take a weight off your shoulders.
Do you agree?
