"Hello Kimberly, being transparent and revealing is difficult, but, regarding your question, I feel it's the right thing to do. I remember my very first explosive experience that proved your axiom.
When I was four years old, I accompanied my mother to a store where she did some shopping. During our visit, I decided to take a small toy without paying for it. I pulled it out of my pocket on our way home and began to play with it. My mother noticed and asked where I had gotten it. I was reluctant to speak, which alerted her to the fact I had stolen it. I knew it was wrong to steal, but, I had stolen it anyway (not fearing the punishment for my theft).
Mother had a method of drawing my attention to the shame of taking something that didn't belong to me. After she soundly admonished me, she drove back to the store, made me take the toy to the manager and admit I had stolen it ... and apologise loud enough for everyone to hear. It was extremely difficult to do these things, but, they were the right things to do and I recognized it. I could never steal from that point on...just not right and too damned shameful!
After entering school, I found that friendships were kinda difficult to maintain. I found a friend whom I really liked ... we had lots in common; however, in the presence of one or more mentally challenged persons this friend made fun of their shortcomings. I felt extremely embarrassed. My new found friend was as smart as me, was well dressed and from a good family, but, had little or no sympathy for the mentally challenged people in class. My friend had no sym-empathy. I didn't understand why not. After all, I didnt' have to learn empathy I just understood it from birth ... it's the right thing to feel under those circumstances. I looked elsewhere for friends ... it was difficult, but it was the right thing to do.
In my teenage years girls became a big influence. I was motivated by their looks first. I tended to like the ones I though were beautiful and thought of ways to bring them closer to me.
One beauty, that I finally brought around, turned out to be mean as hell. Pretty, but, mean. I finally realized just trying to get a pretty girl was kinda shallow. It just wasn't the right thing to do. I entered a period of growth. I found I began to get better results when I was truthful. I guess the gals could read me pretty well. No one has to cover their trail when they use truth as their talisman, but, it's hard to use when you lay yourself bear to the descretion of others. Trust has to be there even if it is taken advantage of. Truth might be the hardest thing to use ... because you may not get who/what you want by reveiling it.
Yes, it remains kinda hard to put up with it in some respects, but, the older I get, the more I reach out with the truth; however, I've become aware that the most important thing in all of this is that you must be careful in how you reveal it."

The result of the same act is often different for the people involved. Therefore, a person may be faced w/ a choice between what may be a good time for them, but cause someone else harm. It's human nature to think of your own well-being or personal gain first. Otherwise, doing the right thing wouldn't be so hard.

The simple answer is :-

Right is HARD

Wrong is SIMPLE

You know the right person have achieved that status only by hard work. Better not to take anything easy and analise and work hard

Not really, it's just that you noticed it more when it is hard to do. Don't tell me you've been doing the wrong things every day. We do right things all the time, just when it becomes hard, we take note of it.

Because it usually requires you to examine self and be totally honest. Self-examination is difficult because we don't always like what we see and because doing the right thing can sometimes be painful, esp. if there are negative consequences.

Because if it's easy, we would've done it without thinking. We usually ponder when what we should do is difficult. Incidentally, this is the opportune time for the devil to come in.

It may be the hardest at the beginning, but as you progress,
and ALWAYS be very taceful it WILL become easier.

I totally believe this, it has worked for me.

You mean like a divorce after 16 years of marriage. Somewhere along the way, we feel out of love.

because we are taught from the craddle that happiness, pleasure, are not good, really good.
we are taught that things that are worthy are related to some kind of effort or privation or suffering.
its a point of view.
i strongly desagree :)
