I
May be Moving – Morals and Ideology

Fun Fact - this is my 1,000th post

Hello. I am here to discuss my approach to life and its currently undetermined
meaning. The world in which we live right now harbors a vast number of people,
their beliefs, and their assumptions about why we exist. Today, I am going to
share mine with you all because of a possible future event that triggered my
deep thinking on this subject and caused me to cherish the little time I have
left during this phase of my life.

This thread is represented by a question mark symbol because of the mixed feelings I
have about what could happen in the very near future. It is likely that I will
be moving to a relatively nearby country once the seventh grade is over in
order to escape the ongoing mayhem taking place where I currently live. I felt
happiness, sadness, excitement, and fear all at once upon hearing the news from
my parents. I have no idea whatsoever about how to feel or react, and I feel
like I have once again plunged into the same emotional mess I was in prior to a
few weeks ago, when I regained my long lost confidence and self-esteem. I do
not want to return to that seemingly endless period of psychological turmoil
once again, especially not since I have become what I thought to be a socially
stable person for a promising while.

I have decided to stop trying to determine why we exist. Perhaps it is unknown to
us for a reason, and perhaps we should remain oblivious to the matter. I
believe that everything happens for a reason. My ideology about life is rather
vague, but it is heavily based on that statement. I am also on neither side –
neither science nor religion. I have to admit that I do not deny what I see. I
believe facts and observations based on evidence from scientists and therefore
believe that the universe was triggered via the Big Bang. However, I also
strongly believe in God, and I believe that the closer you are to good, the
closer you are to God. Likewise, the closer you are to bad, the farther away
you are from God.

SinceI cannot and do not want to know why we live, I have decided to find out how to
live and how to make the best out of life before it’s over. It is relatively
simple for one to prove him- or herself worthy of salvation, or at least of
being recognized as noble and kind. You must be kind to everyone you meet
throughout life – not necessarily love every single person you meet to death;
it is completely normal and understandable that there are some people you will
encounter whom you do not like as much as others. Living life to its fullest and
making the best out of it for you and others to prove yourself a kind and
caring person is based entirely, I believe, on what we refer to and think of as
morality.

Morals, in my eyes, are basically a matter of right and wrong. Right, according to what
I think, is every quality, every characteristic, every action, and every
decision that defines who you are in a positive way. The choices you make
determine who you are and whether you are behaving ‘rightly’ or behaving
‘wrongly’. I believe that I should think before I act, because I may or may not
regret my movements and words later. I enjoy the saying “Be nice to those you
meet on your way up, because you will meet them again on your way down”. It is
more than fine to have fun, play pranks, and sneak around with friends
sometimes, but doing it with a bad cause and being cruel while doing so is
wrong. You should be of good heart at all times with your ways, and you must
always have concern for others.

Now that morals and ideology are out of the way, it is time to briefly cover the
third part of this thread, which is the entire reason I began thinking long and
hard about this subject. I might be moving for good. This does not really
concern you all, as I imagine, for I have only known you on here on Vizzed, where
we can always keep in touch, but there is a special someone it is going to be
very hard to say goodbye to if I leave, where the chances are fifty-fifty.

I am a little bit happy because I have partially been hoping for this to happen
all along due to the constant bombings and other hell-on-earth-like occurrences
that just don’t seem to end. In a way, moving would be a relief when you
consider everything that’s going on in this place. “Finally, I’m out of this
dump!” That’s what I always thought to myself when thinking about possible
getaways in the future. But I feel so bad right now for have ever calling my
wonderful country a dump. The saying, “You don’t know what you got until it’s
gone” is the perfect one to use in this case. I never realized how much I loved
this country until now, when I’m on the verge of never, ever seeing it again.
It has its perks; the mountains are simply beautiful, and my lovely, kind
family lives here. Well, half of it does, anyway. I already see the other half
when I travel to the other side of the world during summer vacations, but
leaving my birthplace permanently is completely different. I want to cherish
the possibly final months I have here while I have the chance, and I have to
keep in mind that I might not even move at all. Just in case, I shall remain
loyal to this country more than ever. I never thought I would be ashamed of
myself for calling this place a dump. Although, it does make sense all the
same. Filthy, bombed or not, this place is my home. And it always will be,
regardless of whether or not I may lose it forever.

The fear feeling originates from the possibility that I will never see my best
friend Green every again. He also happens to be my cousin. That is the most
horrid thought to have ever crossed my mind, and it disgusts me; I hope I will
never have to experience it.

Sadness, as you may have guessed, is saying goodbye to friends and family, of course.
But I am sure they can visit. Unless things get too bad over there and the
airport gets sacked. Such assumptions should not be made, however, and I am
going to stop this right now.

Excitement… I might finally have a chance to start over with my reputation and make new
friends. The reason, however, that this possible occurrence is making me think
about morality and ideology and ideals and the meaning of life and all that is
because of my possible loss – Green, again, whom I keep mentioning because of
how dear he is to me. Then, I think… Does this little split-up even matter when
you consider we are all in a much larger world, which is a mere point in the
vast, dark cosmic space. A simple issue taking place on a fraction of a dot in
a grand dark vacuum of emptiness and quiet. Nothing much when you think about
it. However, it does matter, and the actions one takes are important, too, as
I’ve stated when discussing my ideology. Morals are what count. And the fact
that I might be moving is what caused the whole session of thought on this for
me.

I hate to break the news, cousin, but let’s not be dramatics. Here’s a ruffle to
your ever-deserving hair. *Ruffles your hair*. I promise, my brother, that if I
leave, I will definitely ruffle your hair one last time in real life
beforehand. Besides, this, if it happens, is the ultimate test of our
friendship, and the outcome will officially determine whether we were ever best
friends in the first place. Heads up, this is seriously not an April Fools’
prank. You have my sad, regrettable word. It’s ironic the news has to come on
the first of April. Nevertheless, Green. I might not even go. This is just in
case things get worse here. But, in preparation for the worst, read the
following statement. I will never forget you. And I love you.

That about sums up that. It was a pleasure to share my ideas and thoughts on morals
with you all, and, as always, thank you for reading. Writing this took a mere
few hours, but a truck load of thought and concentration was put into it
beforehand. This bulky chunk of stuff-that-I-am-sure-no-one-is-going-to-read is
the first piece I’ve written on a subject of this sort, and is probably the
last you will be hearing from me, since it is difficult for me and frightening
due to the paradoxical thoughts it brings to me.
