Doing Things Right ?

The Gray Patch

Everything in our life comes with two sides . There's wrong and then there's right . The society enforces us to accept things in a simpler way , in a binary form , either it's 1 or 0 but in reality things are just complicated. Rightnow , I am on that stage of my life , where I am awaiting for a change , a drastic shift from home to collage , from alone to friend circle , from penniless to pennifull . I am planning , I am working in that direction hoping that everything will be "Right", but will it be right ? cause clearly I don't have straight idea of it. We all are just striving to "Do the right " , there's so much pressure , anxiety , stress , sleepless nights and you constantly fighting with yourself . No one wants the Wrong to happen in their life, it just happens . All our life we try to control all the actions which maybe not in our control at all . We are taught as childs that doing the right is important , hell we have even moral science periods in class , but no one teaches us to do the right for whom ? for the society ? for the people who judge us at our every step ? for people who plaster a fake smile in front of us and can never stop bitching our backs ? Isn't doing the right means to doing right by myself . Isn't doing right means to think what makes me happy and not the society . Isn't doing right means to find my inner peace . In life how much we try , we will hurt someone , we will be the anti hero in someone's life but that doesn't makes us bad , breaking the rules doesn't makes us look bad , defying the society doesn't makes us look bad either , the only thing that makes us look bad is we going against our self conscience . The heart may lie , the brain may be logical but the self conscience is the master of everything . An act can't be simply described as right or wrong based on some parameters cause it's not a freaking measurement scale . People do things what they think is Right and that happens only when they convince themselves that anyone in my situation would do the same thing . See? how complicated it is . Nothing is white and dark , there's always a grey pasture where we play our petty little games . Thinking for one's happiness is not selfish , it's self love but thinking only about one's happiness is selfishness . Well , I am contradicting my own first few lines where I literally state, "Fuck the society , follow your heart ". But even the society is not so simple . There are people who matter to you and they are part of the society too . Hurting someone you deeply care about is not easy , doing right by them becomes important to you but in that process you may hurt yourself more , in those times conscience play a pivotal role , conscience will definitely guide you to come in conclusion to the question of " Is the sacrifice really worth ?" , if it is go ahead cause you will proud one day to sacrifice for the right cause and if it is not , don't do the sacrifice because time will flow by and then regret will make your life unfathomable . So doing right doesn't imply to do right by your side or society's side or some beloved's side , it means to do right by the Truth's side . It means to do right by time and after all this , after trying too we may fail , we may end by doing the Wrong , but at least we would have tried . There will be some kind of satisfaction and then there will be forgiveness , both seeking and giving and at last there will be Acceptance . Acceptance is one of the major philosophy of life which is not talked about much . When the war is over , it's time to start new , to build again , acceptance gives us the strength to accept the fate and leave the past behind and again trying to do the right . In conclusion it's not about the result because it's not in our hand but the effort . The effort of Doing Right is the only way to do the right .
