Is it really necessary to try "do what is right"? Would that not the least of things? But how to know, with enough conviction, this is right? In fact, when we perform an action, because it seems , at the time, what's better to do. Otherwise, we would anything else.
In my opinion, instead of worrying too much want to do what is right or "good", the real question is: Am I really what I should be, that is to say myself?. "Become what you are" said the sage (I forget which).
Yes, although I do not know yet what I have become, someone, say in a vague term, a higher court, who knows. For I am not the source of my life. She knows what I'm becoming. By being true to that destiny, I think probably the best way of being useful to society and to do what is right. So I have to imitate anyone, but to fulfill my essential being, personal, unique among six and a half billion people we are. If each is himself, he cooperates with what is good for all, without even really knowing it. It also fights against evil, without his knowledge further.
As birds and flowers, which are what they are, neither more nor less. They act according to their nature and instinct, and they do not miss their shot! It is true that, unlike birds and flowers, I have a conscience and intelligence dictate to me what is right or wrong. But this discernment between good and evil is often quite subjective. What some called good, others call it evil. We can lose ourselves.
Plants and animals do not have them, this ability to make mistakes in their future. They always act according to their being. The apple can not give cherry, or the bird lay eggs outside of the season. Just why plants and animals have the necessary conditions to develop (for food, water, air, light, etc.).. As for me, I have this terrible possibility of forking my line and, perhaps, to oppose my destiny. Unless there, in the secret depths unknown to me, opportunities to catch up. I hope, because the ultimate success is a comprehensive plan that probably not dependent on the vagaries of each.
It is therefore prudent to submit my decision to a higher authority and let me drive by it. It's safer! This instance may well be also to reach me, different ways, appropriate to my human condition, as friendly exchanges, reading events, or other channels that m'éclairent. So that I may have not blinded, but driven by a light different than mine alone. So despite my failures, my turns, I can probably get where I am. Do not we say that God writes straight with crooked lines?
