Limitation of Perception

Up until the very beginning of humanity, the existence of temptations was bluntly portrayed. With man’s time here on earth, man is bound not only to live in goodness but also to co-exist with evil that drools upon submitting to temptations. It comes in many forms and strikes in different ways. Befriends anyone and always leaves no trace of conscience in anything it crashes.

Sometimes, man puts all the blame on its nature as human beings for being imperfect which is basically correct. However, man should also take into consideration that, upon being born, he is also given free will to act against evil. Instances will also occur wherein human senses will deceive their owners by perceiving temptations or evil as something beneficial or something that brings good to them.

Alongside every decision we make, there will always be an equivalent effect of such action. Regardless of what man believes it is inclined to: bad or evil, the inevitable consequence will always surface during his course of life. But given the presence of "effect" in every act we create, one must not be afraid to act on what he believes is right and just because of the mere consequence. In other words, if man is so afraid to act with what he wants or believes is right, who would do it for him then? Thus, in order for man to fulfill his duty or journey as a living, he must focus on doing something rather than putting in mind the inevitable effect.

On another thought, humans tend to blame the things that are truly good perse for the bad or unlucky happenings in life. An example of this is the overly used concept of love. There will be times when we are very happy to experience love, times when we are very inspired and motivated, but once everything also goes down, we also blame love for what has happened to us. Truth be told, it is the complete opposite of love: hatred, jealousy, anger, doubt, and many more. How can this very pure feeling be associated with these corrupted factors?

Seeing life as totally unfair and chaotic in some way is heavily based on our mentality and beliefs. We are being pulled into the negative side of it. However, such a perceived dilemma by man is fallacious because life itself is also equipped with blessings and uniqueness. For what man can see and tend to focus on is what his only belief exists, which is the unfairness and chaos it brings, but if only one will learn to look at it as a blessing, he will then learn how to count his blessings instead of sheep.
