Topic: Right or Wrong
People have different opinions on different subjects. What i feel may be the right thing to do may be different in your opinion and what you feel may be the right thing to do may be different in my opinion.
For example, my friend was in a very confusing situation. Her abusive boyfriend wanted her to move out with her parents and to get an apartment with him. Her parents really didn't approve of her boyfriend because of his controlling temper. He pressured her and pressured her to move in with him. Many friends and family members pressured her not to do. She was really confused and didn't know what to do. Her boyfriend brain washed her making her think that we were the bad people and that we didn't want her to be happy with him. We were telling her the same thing. She eventually moved out of the house with her parents and moved in with him. We continued to tell her that it was wrong but she still convinced us that it was right. Not even a month later she was back living with her parents. As soon as she moved back in her parents kept telling her that they told her and that they were right. She knew that they were telling the truth but she didn't know how to take it because thought at first that she was right. They eventually had a family meeting where they sat down and talked to her and they all got to express their feelings about the situation. Since then she has been a very different person and she thinks twice before she decides to make a decision about something.
Another example is that you may be around friends that smoke. They may tell you that you should smoke to relieve stress and all these other myths about smoking. In your head you know that it's wrong, but you have people around you pressuring you telling you that it's right. They always say that you should go on what your heart tells you to do. Sometimes your heart might tell you to do something that you know might be wrong. I can tell you that from experince. I was the girl that was around friends that smoked and at first my heart told me that it was okay just because my friends were doing it. I knew that my heart wasn't being honest with me but i still decided to do it. My mom then started smelling the smoke on me. When she started to ask did I smoke, I denied it from her. She then one day had to move my car so that she could get out of the driveway and she found a pack of cigarettes. There was no way to lie out of that one. She never said anything to me until she got home from work. She really made me realize that I shouldn't do anything that can kill me in the future or give me cancer. She also told me that my great-grandfather passed away the year i was born because he had lung cancer. She said that he found out that he had lung cancer three weeks before he died. My mom did not want that to happen to me. I really did thank my mom for that advice. Since that day i have not smoked a cigarette. I even got most of my friends to stop. I still have a couple of friends who have tried to stop but they can't because they are so addicted to them.
In conclusion, people have different morals. What you feel is wrong someone else may feel is right and what you feel is right someone else may feel is wrong.
