i type in fear of being bombarded, but i'm really good at the whole ignoring and discarding thing.
what you do at the time is the right thing because you did it at the time, chose to because you thought it was right. a mistake isn't initially a mistake, only in retrospect. a choice can't possibly be defined as right or wrong with the initial decision because whatever choice you make is going to be what you consider the right one.

yeah, that wasn't really articulate or the best representation of what i was thinking, but it's the basic idea i guess. i dunno, just my two cents... sense... whatever.

i know what you're saying. the thing is, we often feel like we know what we think the right thing is, but choose an easier or cowardly option instead. consciously picking what isn't right.. that's what is to be overcome..

better judgement as to what is the right thing, got it.

of course that choice will always be the right thing in that instant when it's made. i think we're talking two different contexts, but we agree and that is mighty peach.

i didn't even really mean better judgement, i just mean even though i sometimes know what the right thing is, i do the wrong thing instead.
