what would you choose?
doing the wrong thing because that's what makes you happy, or doing the right thing even if it means depriving your happiness?
Me, i'd rather deprive my happiness than compromise the good.. i would rather be sad than be happy because of the wrong reason.. I don't want to be happy when it means hurting other people..

We must stick to our values. Although something might bring about immediate benefits, but if it is against our value, we must reject the lure to be loyal to our values. I do not think the wrong things will results in permanent happiness. Better not go beyond the line rather suffer from later regrets.

i guess our values and principles determine our being human. We make our choices basing it on our values and principles. I agree with you that wrong things will never result to any good. True happiness for me can only be found in the right decisions or choices that we make. We become happy just by knowing that we made the right decision.

Your words remind me of Frank's address in the film THE SCENT OF A WOMAN. He said: Now I have come to the crossroad in my life, I always knew what the right path was,
wihtout exception, I knew. But I never took it. You know why? it is too damn hard...
I think you have chosen the right way to go.

I agree with you. It is better to be honest and have a clear conscience rather than living in lies. Life is too short so it is better to spend life in a good way rather than hurting others.
