Things I Can Never Do: Guided by Discipline and Values

in Hive Reachout • 19 days ago

Good day everyonešŸŒ¤ļø,

You are warmly welcome to my blog. I’m happy to share my thoughts and journey with you here on Hive-reachout community.

There are certain things that feel impossible for me to do, not because of law or rules, but because of my own discipline and values.

āŒ Cheating

I don’t find it safe to cheat. I’m not claiming to be a saint, but I find it very difficult to take what does not belong to me. On several occasions, I’ve seen people being cheated—especially those who don’t even realize what is happening to them. Whenever I witness this, it makes me feel really bad. I can’t bring myself to do the same thing, because I know how it hurts.

🚭 Smoking and Hard Drugs

I also don’t smoke or take hard drugs. From childhood, my parents always advised us about the dangers of drugs. They gave us convincing examples and taught us how destructive it could be. Those lessons stayed with me, and up until now, I’ve never even had it cross my mind to give it a try.

That being said, I’m not against anyone who smokes or takes such substances. I believe everyone has their reasons and makes decisions that suit them best. But for me personally, it’s something I can never do.

This act is what I call ā€œbeautiful on the outside but ugly on the inside.ā€

Imagine staying together with someone, eating together, and sharing life for a long time, only to later discover that much of the advice or information you’ve received was based on lies. It feels so disappointing and completely unacceptable.

šŸ›‘ Telling Lies

Telling lies destroys trust, damages good relationships, and creates hate. I strongly believe no one can lie to themselves—or to God. My conscience does not allow me to lie, except in rare situations of extreme danger, like self-defence.

Staying away from cheating, lies, and drugs has given me peace of mind, discipline, and a clearer path toward my dreams. These are things that, for me, will always remain impossible to do.

I've had this particular friend for two years who lies about every single thing. The first months of our friendship, I believed all she said; about how sophisticated her family were and all that until the day I and other friends happened to come across her house and found out she wasn't as rich as she had bragged.

She was so embarrassed and I thought that would make her to change her ways but unfortunately, she didn't. She went on lying. That really damaged our friendship because I stopped telling her certain things.

That really a right step in the right direction, many people do tell lies about their financial status.

Lying with financial status can never changed anything or solve problems, just wondering why most people do this..

Honestly, I don't really get the rationale behind such 😐
