The Good and Bad
“The good and bad are man-made concepts.” You may have heard that before, and it may have felt confusing — and the reason for that is because these words are both true and false.
What’s good and what’s bad are naturally clear: what benefits is good, and what harms is bad. What made these words also true beside being false are the things that start as benefiting but sometimes end as harming. So their nature is not as clear, and as a result, in some communities such things are considered good, in others they are considered bad, and in others they are considered good but only with certain conditions.
In situations like these, a wise man will let go of what he doubts and will hold onto what he does not doubt.
