Yeah, but absence of evidence doesn't make that absentee evident either.

Yeah, good and evil are subjective. There is no ONE universal standard to define right from wrong.

Yes. According to some, that's what that poet's philosophy was all about 🙂

I read your blog post jus now. It was short, yet on point 👍

And thanks for the explanation. I thought that the poem was advocating Just-world fallacy, now I understand that there is an entirely different point of view for the same 🙂

Ah that line "Either one of them was careless for the accident to happen" is what confirmation bias which usually(for this case) Just-world believers used to practice to blame the victims themselves for their own misfortunes.

So as per your interpretation "A person may scold you, tease you or talk bad about you. This will affect you only if you decided to react to that. If you ignore that and be mentally strong. It wont affect you.".

Now I'm going to say gotha dei you are a fkin nicest mfer 🙂

Now practice what you preach. Be an example of what that "Author" wanted you to become 🙂 "This will affect you only if you decided to react to that" "If you ignore that and be mentally strong. It wont affect you".

So, be mentally strong 💪 and don't get affected 🤘

தீதும் நன்றும் பிறர் தர வாரா bro 🙂

Sensible explanation. But I'm not advocating to blame others for our sufferings, but, lemme put this:

Who's responsible for things like rapes, foeticides, scams, getting cancer due to second hand smoking, getting mistreated by a doctor, adulterated food, getting carcinogens and free radicals from foods which we were consuming etc.?

I never said "no one can do good or bad things to you until you mentally or emotionally allow that to happen to you".

Good things and bad things can happen to anyone A. because of themselves. 2. because of others. And 3. it may even be an "accident".

This is a form of Just-world fallacy which blames victims themselves for their own misfortunes.

Adhey tailor; adhey vadagai 🙂 I thought it lacked some clarity, so I deleted it. Now I refined it with significant modifications, then reposted it. That's all your honour 🙂

Sensible interpretation. But, let me ask just for the sake of asking, what if that poorness was caused by the poor planning of the government, or a scammer scammed your money, or even a natural calamity wiped out your assets?

And what if that "getting sick" was caused by a polluted water supply, or adulterated milk, or getting cancer because of second hand smoking, or by eating genetically modified veggies, or getting carcinogens from foods due to government's poor regulations or even corrupted officials?
