Normal or Abnormal, Right or Wrong, Good or Bad….
Good morning friends,
Let’s today list some rare things on earth,
One of these is surely a ‘normal human being’,
There is around us an almost total dearth,
Even on the definition of it we keep disagreeing.
What does, in effect, this teach us?
That for something this basic there isn’t a consensus.
Like all other virtues and emotions that exist,
Even this is subject to individual interpretation.
When, for example, we find “a normal man” in our midst,
Can he be used for the concept’s confirmation?
We can, therefore, easily conclude,
That even “Good” and “Bad” have no certitude.
We should thus cut out all pretensions,
And don’t ascribe virtues in absolute;
Every virtue and concept has myriads of dimensions,
And therefore even basics lead to dispute.
We don’t have universal definition of “wrong” and “right”,
No one has displayed that kind of foresight.
“God, let me not knowingly do something wrong”,
“Unknowingly, I don’t have the requisite control”,
“I shall learn the difference as I go along”,
“I have no way to see truth as a whole.”
“Forgive me for my innate ignorance,
When I err, give me another chance.”
….are not absolute but subject to interpretations.
