Often told, never listened

People have been trying to rip off each other consistently. But, it's quite a marvel to have come from ripping each other apart.

Only if we realize how dependent we individuals are, this foolish behavior would vanish. As everything we 'assume' to own, think to have earned by the sweat of our brow are simply the labor of hard working men. Look at the device you're reading this off, it took many hardworking souls to build it.

I'm not a saint either. Like the rest of you I'm spoiled by human emotions, and am a victim of it.

The movie 'Body of Lies' showcases the following quote:

"I and the public know
What all schoolchildren learn,
Those to whom evil is done
Do evil in return.”
                                                                             ―W.H.Auden

In a similar but positive light, don't we reap good by sowing it first?

'The Secret' suggests, positive attracts positive; thoughts and deeds.

Let us try this approach, and see what life has to say.
