When you have something you really want to do, but you know you shouldn't, what do you do?

 

 

If it doesn't hurt or endanger or have detrimental effects on anyone.. do it.

Usually, if it's something you shouldn't do ... it would hurt, endanger or have detrimental effects on someone.

Sounds to me that since you're even considering it, you must not have a concious (:huh . So do it.

If they did, would they even be thinking about doing it? :huh

He already said he knows it's a bad thing.

 

 

Which indicates to me that he's at least exercising the thought process.. meaning he has a conscience.. no?

 

Wouldn't it make sence that one would need a conscience to even ask such a question..? :huh

I see your point Steff.

In my mind, I have a very clear sense of right and wrong and if something is wrong, I don't do it, no consideration. That's just me.

 

Oh f*** it Tex, if it hurts someone else, don't do it, if it might just hurt you, do it.

I see yours also..

 

Sometimes there are things that are proposed that I don't even consider because it's clear they are wrong..

 

It's the "hmmm... should I, could I, would I, maybe I could ..." things where I think the conscience comes into play. That's what it sounds like Tex is wrestling with.. I think. :huh

Wow...pass me over some of that will-power you've got...

 

I try to do the right thing more times than not, but its a bold comment to say you never go against your conscience or better judgment.

Trust me, you have to do a lot of f***ing up to get there. It's part will power, but mostly fear, lol.

You should weigh your options very heavily b4 you do anything rash. Ask yourself if its truely worth giving up whatever you may be giving up to have what you want...if not then you have your answer.. good luck either way. Take this from a person who has never done a thing right in his whole life... now that takes skill!! :bang

I see it all perfectly; there are two possible situations - one can either do this or that. My honest opinion and my friendly advice is this: do it or do not do it - you will regret both.

Soren Kierkegaard

 

 

He also said something to the point of: When you choose whom you ask for advice, you choose your advice. (Or maybe that was Nietzsche--either way, it's a good point.)
