The more often I do the RIGHT things in my life, the better my life is. Do you feel that way?

[Bricealan]

By the 'Right" things, I mean to say what seems right morally, socially, ethically. I know that differs from person to person, and situation to situation, but on the WHOLE as we understand 'right behavior' and decisions, do you find this too be true in your life?

In my life, I have been my own worst enemy and have made bad decision that blew up in my face sooner that later, but it seems the more I think things through, I make decisions that make my life better and more successful and fulfilling.

I would like your thoughts.

No one must be a SAINT to do what is right or proper, but most do know and recognize what is most likely to be seen as behavior that is moral and socially acceptable to most of human kind

I feel the same way. Although, I don’t particulary believe in karma, I do think whatever good we put into the universe often comes back to us in some way.

[Bricealan]

@queenofcardio I too, do not believe in Karma, but I try to do what I think is the re thing to do, towards others, no matter what others may feel. I try to help some deserving homeless people, woman mostly and some young black people.

Yes. I am an office bearer in my Apartment block and statutorily required to act in good faith i. e do the right thing. A major benefit of acting ethically is you have no turmoil, no conflicts. Life does become better and simpler.

Thanks for a mho

[NathanDavis]

that's pretty much how I've lived most of my life...

[LazerBean]

Absolutely. I am very grateful to have had parents that taught me how to make good choices.

[Bricealan]

@LazerBean You are a very lucky woman to have those kinds of parents

[LazerBean]

Yes sir, thank you

My aim on GAG is to help people untangle their love lives, minds, and hearts… with a little flirt and a lot of honesty 😏

Yes, this is so real. Doing the “right” thing doesn’t always give instant rewards, but it massively reduces drama, regret, and emotional hangovers. Fewer lies, fewer cover-ups, fewer self-sabotage loops.

Thinking things through is you leveling up. That’s emotional maturity, not boring behavior. The more aligned your actions are with your values, the calmer and richer life feels. Long-term peace beats short-term thrills every time, even if chaos feels exciting in the moment.

Agree with that.

everything has a selfish/selfish edge to it. Id want to stay on the not just morally right, but spiritually right side... it feels way better and generally works out better. Paying attention... emotionally... really works for me in real life. online, it's more difficult.

@Bricealan
