WHY BE GOOD? A person tends to be good towards other people so that they will be able to gain respect from others. Ever since we were a child, our parents have already thought us the difference between good and bad. It’s a discipline for us so that we know how to act towards the people surrounding us. In my own opinion and experience, when you are a good person you can walk everywhere you want with a clean heart. You don’t have that grudge within you that somehow hinders you to be happy. Honestly I have tried to become a “bad” person. I can say that because I sometimes cannot control my words towards other people. I tend to be very tactless especially when I’m not in the mood. From that experience, I realized that even just by words I can easily hurt a person’s feelings. And words that were already spoken can only be forgiven, but not forgotten. After those experiences, I learned a lot of lessons. And just like what my mother keeps on telling that “Be good.” Every now and then she always tells that to me. Now I realized what the essence of it is. It is for me to go and reach my dreams in life without hurting other people. Because being good makes you feel that you’re a better person. And you can also stand as a model or an inspiration for the public.
