“It is lack of love of self and others that leads to destruction.
“bad” decisions are always born out of trauma or lack of emotional understanding (there is knowing better and then there is knowing better on an emotional level).”
Enorah, I agree that we all should have more compassion in life for those who are unable to obtain the basic needs in life or have been struck by misfortune.
I do not however agree that everyone makes choices because they lack love of themselves or that their bad decisions are always born of trauma. I know plenty of people who are flat out spoiled who came from great loving families but got spoiled rotten. They love themselves so much they are narcissistic. They feel “entitled”. They are selfish. There are people who will always take more than their fair share. There are those are are conniving and will look to work the system. There is a right and wrong. Murder is wrong. Stealing is wrong. Ultimately, spending money on credit or borrowing, with the intention of never paying it back when that is what you’ve agreed to, is tantamount to stealing.
