Principle of Generalization

I always walk in the dark so people could see the light, but I still wonder how people are, they concentrate too much in the dark and misses the light. When the light shines, they put it out with their ill notions and what they see at last is the dark. And so this is how life is, a 1000+ good things are trampled on when one tiny bad thing surfaces from your end. You will be put to jail for your entire life for a single 'sin' you did in your 45, and nobody will care about the good deeds you did before you reached 45. For any human being, the generalization principle is forever at work. And to those who don't know why they are victims to this principle, the principle requires that your reasons for your actions must be in harmony with the assumption that any person with similar reasons must behave the same way. It so implies that, if you give a false testimony for the first time , the same reasons you would give as a defense, will be the same reasons a prolific liar who gives false testimonies in court hearings will give, thus both of you should be punished in equal measure. But this never the case, The principle errs multiply, and this is why it is considered as a master principle. It works best for the bosses.

It seems to be true that one bad thing can darken everything else, at least in the eyes of others.
