Often people may not see what is wrong with their behaviours or actions, as they are surrounded by others who view it as normal.

There is much truth in this statement, that one must be careful with whom they surround themselves with, as may be wrongly influenced and may end up not seeing the wrong as it becomes normalised.

However, it is not always the case as many of us stick to our own values, beliefs, standards, morals and integrity and do not fall to temptations or wrong influences. If one knows they have a weakness in an area and do not want to be influenced in such a way, they should put boundaries in place and avoid certain places or close company with certain people. Just as you may keep a rotten fruit with a perfectly good one, the mould can spread and affect both.

It's o.k to help others if they seek help but not get caught up in what they do, that you do not believe in. Moreover, being too close in friendship may be risky if one is easily lead astray and wrongly influenced. In addition if a person does you wrong in any way, you should still stick to your own set of values, beliefs and integrity and not do anything against these to get them back. After all two wrongs do not make one right. ✅️ You will be the same as them or worse. You should be the bigger person and not stoop down to their level.

Apart from hurting the other person, you will also hurt yourself and may later find it difficult to forgive yourself and may regret it. Why go against your own integrity to prove a point to someone else or hurt them. This only shows your character of revenge and an excuse to really do what you may want to do. Your conscience, beliefs and values should shout louder!!
