"Its so easy to laugh. Its so easy to hate. It takes strength to be gentle and kind. - Stephen Morrissey"
It's always easier to think of yourself first and only. So its easier to be bad.

Well personally, I find it easier to be a good person. It is easier for me to be polite, say thank you, hold doors for people, etc. If i leave a small tip at a restaurant because I don't have enough cash, i will feel bad about it for the rest of the day. Yet for others, I think it is easier to be bad. I have seen many people who seem to have no conscience. For them, they have no problem lying, ditching friends, being rude and insulting to their parents, elders or authority figures. I would have to say it depends on the person.

It is more difficult to be a good person. Bad people have lots of company.

I've been doing good at being "good",being good is like lifting weights-its hard at first, but in time your strength builds up and it becomes normal to you. Being bad is soooo easy, but its like a black hole that just takes u deeper, and deeper into it. So i decided that b 4 i got to deep into being and evil person, i'd change for the better b 4 it was too late.

Its always easy to "go with the crowd" and be bad, but, it takes effort on your part to avoid the crowds, or just say no to drugs or even do the "right thing".
Doing the right thing, makes you a pariah, because people are afraid of you, that you will turn them in, and they tend to avoid you...
So, you need good people to hang around with, who arent a bad influence...
Its all a matter of choice, and how you were raised, if you will "do the right thing"...
I wish you well..

A lot easier to be bad coz being good requires loving the unlovable, kissing the unkissable, hugging the unhaggable and bearing the unbearable....

Good person. The bad person eventually gets found out and rejected.

It doesn't really matter if it is easier being a good or bad person. All that matters is that you have to be who your heart and mind wants to be.

hmm..it depends! for some people it's easier to be a bad person but for some people it's easier to be a good person because they might feel guilty and unpleasant if they do something wrong. so it's easier for them to be good!
