Getting a bit sick of reality

I'm getting so sick of people that think they deserve things and act as if their reality is important. People struggle - and they say I've been struggling for a long time I deserve to have a break and what do they do? They force the person beside them to carry their burden. And what's worse - they'll call you a bad person if you do not want to accept (as if you had a choice). They'll tell me it's immoral not to help them. Well you know what I think? I think you don't help a man to fish by giving him fish - keeping him alive simply for the sake of being alive.

 

You don't help a man by relieving him of his burden, you help him by believing in him during times where he doesn't believe in himself.

 

People get so caught up in their own realities that it seems to me they think themselves almost immortal. They think they deserve to be alive and to be happy - how can this possibly be the case when death is inevitable for all? How can someone claim they have a "right to life" when our existence was clearly and distinctively made mortal? How can someone claim they have a right to be happy when we have clearly been designed to struggle?

 

People will tell me that to be good I have to help them. What does this mean? It means that I have to make them comfortable. Their morals are founded on comfort. I can do nothing but laugh at such a petty reason for existing. These are the types of people that would cage us to protect us from each other and dress us in straight jackets to protect us from ourselves. I pity those who are indoctrinated into this philosophy, nothing good can come of it - nothing good can come of putting all the faith in yourself, leaving none for your fellow man.

 

As for me, I believe there is good and there is evil. There is no inbetween. I know it is true, it has to be - it has to be because I am able to conceive it. For what purpose is there in being good? I don't know, but I think it leads to true happiness.

 

I enjoy jotting down my thoughts, I think I'll do one about "gay pride" and "gay rights" next.

1) There are some things everyone deserves. Basic requirements for survival and basic rights.

 

2) I think you should give him a bit of fish if he's dying. Then when he has some strength tea. See, the thing is, some people need help, otherwise they die or cannot do better. So we carry their burden so that they can do better later. Context, is what matters.

 

3) They think they deserve to be alive and to be happy. Yes. They do. I don't mean billionaire happy, but still they have a basic right to happiness.

 

4) Because we die, we can't live nor be happy? Nor can we expect to be? What? Then why not just kill yourself (plural)?

 

5) They mean, sometimes, you have to be selfless and not caring of your own hide. That means paying taxes for welfare. You don't have to kill yourself for them. If you play D&D think chaotic good.

 

6) There is an in between in morality. There is no absolute right and absolute wrong. This isn't Mass Effect. There are more than 2 options.
