Let Me Think This Way

Other than materialistic belongings what else are required necessarily to live our lives. I think these are human  inborn traits with which we grow and lead our life. These are very common to all of us and are found among all personalities invariably though the degree of it varies person to person.We know, sense, realise and feel these traits in our daily lives.These are love,affection,hatred,jealousy,truth,falseness,tolerance,anger,austerity,prosperity,sympathy,compassion,misery and many more. Without entering into the argument of bracketing these into virtues and vices does this not stand to logic that all these human traits are necessarily required for our lives irrespective of the popular meaning they stand for.

Let us just imagine that all 125 billion Indians become truthful let's say tomorrow what will be the situation. First of all is it possible? But more important than this, is it necessary to make it possible? I do not think it can happen ever and ever must not it happen also. So will be the situation if all of us are filled with anger or tolerance or hatred or love or any such other trait. You may disagree to agree to this. My reason to this is very simple. It will be serious threat to our own existence because one can not separate the two sides of the coin.   

OK I have presented a bigger canvass.Now let me put this to our daily lives.We say good morning with love but finding the kids in bed even though we lose our tolerance.We are truthful to our family and backbite our colleagues and friends for our own benefits at workplace in the noon. By the evening we are angry on the government and system while in a jam or queuing an ATM and late night we become affectionate and compassionate. The seriality of this may change person to person and also the exhibits of traits as well as the degree of it but more or less this is how our lives complete the life clock.  

What does this prove? To me this proves that all of the traits are essentially required for our persona.The adjective of VIRTUE & VICE only specify the degree of it. So let us live with it.
