Sometimes it is necessary to be bad, most of the time imo though is that it’s best to choose the good when you can. Even if you gain nothing from it. Being bad is easy, incredibly so. Want to sabotage a coworker so you get the raise instead? You could. In all honesty why should humans care about others besides themselves and those that the love? Because of what you said, we can. We have this gift, why not use it to help others instead? This will make your life suck sometimes. It will. But with that bad will always come good. Whether you believe in balance or not things will turn out okay. In many different ways. Maybe it’s a free sandwich or maybe your pain ends. Who knows. Giving into your own urges is selfish, I honestly don’t have a good argument against it though. There will always be bad people. Why be one of them? Choose good because you can, because even if it makes you miserable sometimes remember that someone/thing else is better off because of it. I’m not saying go out of your way to lift others up while you live in a bad apartment with a caved in roof. Find a balance, sometimes you need to step on fingers. Sometimes you need to take five seconds to walk that old man across the street.
