Good or Bad...

In the words of alok...it is called binary. There is a good and there is a bad. There is right and there is a wrong. There is greed and there is fear.There is clear notion around us, in all of us, that who do good to others gets good too and vice versa. I am not so convinced. Had a debate on it, and lost but still not very convinced (that means debate continues)Why it should be like this that when you do good, you get good too.Theoretically if we take up this problem, I think it is a way the world is designed by out great great grandfathers to keep it cool and calm. Undoubtedly otherwise it will all be a mess if all of us start following the bad ways. So a broad rule was formulated that the one who do good, gets good too. And later on all the laws of world, all moral stories, the whole system has followed it. Over the time from an opinion it has evolved to be a fact and now it is so much in our blood that some of the readers have already started smiling or giving dirty looks to me for such a stupid topic followed by idiotic discussion.Again coming to the above point, differentiation between an opinion and a fact is important in course to understand the social system around.Although, I feel nothing wrong they have done to save the world from bad deeds. If all of us forget the good principles taught to us and start following the wrong ones, the world will not survive even for one day.Now coming to the practical life, also I don’t see a great support to the above notion statistically that good gets good and bad gets bad. Most of the big guys around, politicians, businessmen, celebrities not really follow the right ways in their life (I know I should not generalize and there are good people among them, but they can be counted on fingers), as compared to a middle class guy who is scared of god, scared of law, scared of society, scared of etc. etc. and try to follow the correct path taught to him in school, college, by prophets. But still if you notice middle class is still by and large middle class and high is again.....by and large...So both theoretically and practically I don’t see a great support to the above methodology. But still as I said it is so much into our blood that tough to contrast it.Thanks for reading. As always your opinions are most welcome.
