Reasoning Good and Bad

There is no reason why anybody does anything. People only do things by feeling. Or you can make any reason fit the one feeling, but not the other way around.

I'm reminded of the old quote "what's good for an ass is bad for a man" Ass being a donkey, it goes gold is good for a man but bad for an ass but hay is bad for a man but good for an ass. Is it good to kill people, apparently "yes" for the right reasons at war. killing animals is good because we love to eat. We don't care just as long as it's not us. That's the way we feel. But in reality it doesn't matter. Is it bad that asteroids hit earth? For us yes but there was no reason for it, we just want there to be a reason. It's just chance, and nature. There is no good and bad in reality but only opinion of good and bad.

If you're in a mood one day and make bad choices, you will find that when you're out of that mood that you don't even know why you made those choices while in that mood. The fact is that there was no reason and that you were only acting by feeling and trying to explain the feelings with a reason and with some kind of rationality where there was none. Try taking a mood altering drug, like alcohol for example, and you'll see what I mean.

Some people choose to live in Alaska in a subsistence way. But other people will live in florida in the city. All because of how it makes them feel to live that way. The reason is pointless. When faced with a choice, one person will do something for one reason while another person will do something completely different for another perfectly logical reason. Like when you are at war and you alone can save many lives by just sacrificing your own life. Some people will think it is the right choice to make for a perfectly logical reason while others will make the opposite choice for another perfectly good reason. the good of the many out way the good of the few or the one. But self preservation is also logical. So there is no real reason. You can't explain feelings with a reason.

In the end a schizophrenic will have feelings that are so intense of how bad their life is that they make a choice, and try to make a reason for what they're about to do based on their emotions. But the reason has no basis, and they can't think of a good enough reason to not do it, and they finally choose to commit suicide. When in reality it was all feeling that made them do it and no reason in the world can be good enough to justify the waste of your own existence. It's only done to end the feeling.
