Beyond Good and Bad, My Take on Life and Reality

Today at the gym, a casual conversation turned into a deep discussion about life, good, and bad. People kept asking me what is good and what is bad. I simply said, “There is nothing good or bad, it all depends on how we see it.” Life is not a fixed rulebook it’s a matter of perception. But some couldn’t agree with me. They kept repeating the same question as if they wanted a clear, black-and-white answer.

One guy asked, “If a boy abuses a girl, is that good or bad according to your view?” I said, “He will harvest what he does.” Every action has its consequence that’s the law of life. But still, they couldn’t get what I meant. I wasn’t defending wrong actions, I was only saying that labeling everything as good or bad often hides the truth behind human behavior. People do things based on their upbringing, emotions, and mental state. We cannot judge everything through one lens.

Then another asked me, “What is life?” I said, “Nothing.” Because life, to me, is not a thing to define it’s something to live. The more we try to frame it, the more complicated it becomes. Life is a flow, a process of moments. Sometimes we smile, sometimes we break, but everything is a part of the same stream.

I don’t think I failed to explain. Maybe they weren’t ready to accept the idea that truth can exist without labels. People seek comfort in definitions right, wrong, success, failure. But reality doesn’t follow such borders.

So here’s my answer: stop searching for good and bad in everything. Just live with awareness. Do what your conscience says, not what society expects. Life becomes peaceful when you stop judging and start understanding. The goal is not to be right or wrong, but to be real. That’s where true happiness begins.
