Good vs. Evil Alex Warren

Good vs Evil

First off I’m not going to use the word evil when talking about people, because there is a  minute amount of truly evil people in the world, the people I will be talking about are just what most people would be call “bad”. 

I believe in the good people do bad things, aspect of the prompt. Most people either have the mindset of wanting to be good or bad. A person that wants to be good, for example, tries to get good grades in school, tries to help out in the community, tries to be nice to other people. Keyword in that list, “tries”. You try to the right thing, the good thing, in societies eyes. A lot of people want to be that perfect person and want everybody else to think highly of them. Sometimes “good” people are just bad ones in disguise. These people want to be seen by others as good, but deep down they are really just a bad person. By bad person I mean, that person wants to do what would benefit themselves more than benefitting others, because putting what benefits others first is really what being good is.
