WHAT IS RIGHT?


This question strikes every time when I think, say or do something. In certain cases the thoughts, speech and action are not coordinated and thus are independent of each other.  Every bit of energy we spend over it may not be necessarily based upon any preconceived notion that we have.
Anything is right or wrong for anybody.  Neither all the things on earth are right for all or otherwise wrong for all.  The thought, speech or action which is right for an individual becomes wrong for another.  It is quite subjective to a cause, person or intension.
That’s why certain religious beliefs are right for the followers and at the same time wrong for people from other religions and for the atheist. This helps us to believe that nobody is right or wrong for themselves unless they are influenced by anything and that’s why people break rules.  But look at people who break rules and successfully justify it and be proved right.  For instance, killing a person is said to be wrong. Killing a person as a punishment given by the government is said to be right by the government. Again it is subjective in nature.  So is it that everything is right if justified properly? Don’t have an exact answer to say. Even terrorists have a strong reason for their act and are justified in their group. But the opposing parties state their activities to be wrong.
We can find one thing in common, i.e. majority decides what is right or wrong.  In a few cases, a minority which can influence a majority also can decide what is right or wrong for them.  Ethical code of conduct is followed by many Corporates.  It states the right or wrong code of conduct within their premises and never a standard rule being followed everywhere.
If anybody wants to be right always, learn from the chameleon which changes its colour according to the environment it steps on to.  Think on it.  Because for those who are always right are the persons who are tricky enough to change as per the environment who can justify themselves well or otherwise are able to influence and convince others.  They are right not because they do right things but everyone else believes their acts, intentions or speeches to be right. Or else they only do the things what the majority in their group does. Hence anyone can prove their part to be right if strategically thought upon their actions before they are done.
