It's just so easy to not think.
It's easy to ignore the voice in your head that's screaming out, trying to get you to do the right thing.
It's easy to decide to run away from your problems.
It's not easy to think.
Thinking leads to confusion.
It makes you question yourself, your morals and life in general.
But just because It's easy doesn't mean it's right.
It's easy to ignore the feelings of people around you.
It's easy to gossip.
It's easy to go around doing whatever you want just because it "feels good."
It's hard to think.
Listening to the voice in your head
is hard.
Deciding to make the right choice even though it might hurt
is very hard.
Doing something not because you want to, but because you know it's what you need to do
really is incredibly hard.
Everyone knows that.
But even though they do, they still encourage doing the right thing.
“In the end you should always do the right thing even if it's hard.”
― Nicholas Sparks, The Last Song
“Remember, if the time should come when you have to make a choice between what is right and what is easy, remember what happened to a boy who was good, and kind, and brave, because he strayed across the path of Lord Voldemort. Remember Cedric Diggory.”
― J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
“If it is not right do not do it; if it is not true do not say it.”
― Marcus Aurelius, Meditations
No one says that doing the right thing and thinking is easy.
But they still do it because
thinking and doing right, is the right thing to do.
