Being Good Is Easy!

Apparently, people are good, if they just do not do what is wrong but is still a normal thing to do for everyone else. Like, let me see, trying to cheat in an examination. I know it is one silly example but it really does work.

Hello there, I am the Earthian. Thank you for taking the time of your day to read this, if you do.

A lot of people try and (sometimes, maybe even a lot of times, successfully) cheat in examinations. So it kind of becomes "okay" for everyone. It is a wrong that many are willing to overlook and do overlook. It is not a big deal, apparently. So when they come across someone who does not cheat or someone who is not willing to cheat for moral reasons, that someone gets stared at. That someone gets judged. That someone gets treated like they are weirdos who do not follow what is an unwritten rule. They even mock that someone for doing something which should what have been normal. Sometimes, they get called "Here comes the good one", which is as pathetic (for the person calling) as it is flattering (for the person being called).
Basically, what I am trying to say is that the standards of being good are as low as it ever could be. So it's not hard to change or, to put it aptly, tweak our habits and attitudes to be the good person that we all want to be. All we need is to not do what's morally wrong and we'll find ourselves being that person. Remind yourself to never do something to someone that you wouldn't do to yourself.

Lots of love, Peace.
