Can Goodness be associate with Stupidity?

Just recently lang ni nahitabo nako. Ako lang bisay-on kay basi'g masaag to diri sa istorya hehe. Gipabintangan ko indirectly nga ako kunoy ga kuha sa usa ka butang nga wa gyud intawon nako kuha-a. The nerve! Buotan ra ba kaayo ko? Kay kapila na to nako siya tabangi sa iyang trabaho kay di kamao mo ininglis. Di lang ka usa o ka duha o katulo. Nganong ako man gyud intawon iyang gi pili? The nerve gyud! Wa man unta ko nangayo ug anything in return, pero gi tagaan man nuon ko'g labad sa ulo.

So anyway I guess there are times when goodness can be associated with stupidity. If only I listened to my friend to be careful of so group of people, then maybe this would never have happened. Pero during that time I did not want to listen to him because his advice goes something like this: treat them (group of people) like they are below you; it's the only way they will respect you. If you don't, they will **** you first.

Of course I did not agree. I am of the thinking that people should respect people not because they are afraid; or it's not respect at all. But f*ck! (excuse my french). My friend must've been just being smart at all. And I'm stupid.

Buotan ra ba kaayo ko? hehehe nganong question mark man? para nako sakto man imo gibuhat na respect people. maybe kato imong friend victim sad siya, na gi take advantage siya sa una. mao inana iyang na advice nimo. i guess the best way to do is "Treat people the way they treat You.."

figure of speech lang to katong gi kataw-an ko sa ilaga. i was just referring to what some people might say when they read my thread.:o and might think i could have just killed the rat. but honestly the reason why i can't do it, it's because i always put myself in their shoes even if its a rat or any other living creature inferior to us cause all they want is to survive.

Na amuse ko sa imong insight into that rat encounter . to borrow from mommy dee, "kaloka!"

strictly speaking though, can we really say "put yourself in the rat's shoes?" hehe

i think that goodness will always be goodness. even if in the eyes of man we may have been stupid.. or even maybe to ourselves..but God always sees the good things we have done for others, and I believe their is a reward to our being good. just next time be careful, and don't let others take advantage of you!

and regarding your rat experience..haha i find it very amusing. i think its very kind what you did to the rat, or in your case, what you didn't do.hehe i love animals myself and i think i would've done the same thing.
