Clue 6: Principles
For the last few years, i have been recognized as someone who strictly, and more often than not, stupidly adheres to odd principles, that often are not morally driven but just seem to have be formed myself. It is these which guide me, and it is these which i get ridiculed often about by my friends. Indeed, they have been an important part of my identity as someone who is ‘morally upright’ … or at least who presents themselves as such.
But recently, i have been corrupted, i have become exactly what i have disliked. I have become a hypocrit. I know why i have always wanted to be a morally upright person, to right the wrongs and unfairness of society, yet i now know i have failed. I have suffered under the unfair end, asking why do the others not see the unfairness of it all, why don’t they be the one to change it, to make a difference. But, suddenly when given the opportunity to experience the apparent ‘easy life’ I quickly jump on the bandwagon and I quickly lose my self-respect, dignity and principles. Such a hypocrit.
