If someone is constantly selfish or is selfish for a negative reason it becomes a bad thing. Selfishness is always avoidable.

Also, it is somewhat necessary because  it allows people to have individuality when making choices based on what they want to do, rather than what others want them to do]]> 2019-08-30 13:46:55 UTC https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378643342 https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378643350 If there was an absence of God then there wouldn’t be a supreme authority for people to follow, nor would there be a moral code and It would cause people to act out of the ordinary.]]> 2019-08-30 13:46:56 UTC https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378643350 https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378643432 It's ok to be selfish, you matter to those who you care about.

It’s possible to try to clear one’s mind and get rid of distractions and attempt to live only in the present , but at some point a person’s mind will wonder to the past or future and reflect on what they could have done or what the should do next. ]]> 2019-08-30 13:48:31 UTC https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378643926 https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378644101 Yes, I try not to look back at the cringy things I’ve done in the past.]]> 2019-08-30 13:48:39 UTC https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378644101 https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378644380 Yes I try not to look back at the cringy things I’ve done in the past. ]]> 2019-08-30 13:49:11 UTC https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378644380 https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378644401 I feel like yes in the sense of having everything under control and being stable (financially, health wise, etc) but sometimes you dont have the control the unprecedented.]]> 2019-08-30 13:49:14 UTC https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378644401 https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378644457 I believe selfishness is a bad thing because I believe we are in this life to give back to others. We are suppose to give what we have which includes, time, money, energy, and skills. Selfishness is not unavoidable, we can choose to place others above ourselves. Selfishness is not necessary because if everyone was selfish, the world would be in a much worst state than it is right now. ]]> 2019-08-30 13:49:20 UTC https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378644457 https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378644875 Yes, I do most things out of fear.

I can be convinced of something by another person by the way they present what they are trying to tell me, their genuineness and tone will really convince me that something the other person is trying to tell me is true]]> 2019-08-30 13:53:55 UTC https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378646734 https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378647063 Human nature is to be selfish. It is not necessarily wrong to want comfort and safety for yourself, however selfishness becomes toxic when a person hurts others to get ahead or leaves loved ones behind. A person should want the best for themselves, but still be conscious of giving back to others. ]]> 2019-08-30 13:54:37 UTC https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378647063 https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378647144 I believe that complete responsibility for your life isn’t desirable because we can’t control the majority of what we go through in this life. If we pretend like we can control and be responsible for our lives, you will be left feeling broken. But it doesn’t end there, if you place your trust in Jesus, you no longer have to worry about your life and what’s gonna happen.]]> 2019-08-30 13:54:50 UTC https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378647144 https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378647337 randi
i don’t think that people can only live in the present. often times people will metaphorically live in the “past”.  they will constantly reflect on their success or failures of the past and let it consume them ]]> 2019-08-30 13:55:18 UTC https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378647337 https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378647771 With the absence of God human conduct would have no morality. God represents morals and goodness for humans to try to embody. Without God, people would have no restrictions on how to act or what’s right and wrong. ]]> 2019-08-30 13:56:11 UTC https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378647771 https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378647868 randi
yes, for the most part it is your responsibility to make your life the way you want it to be. no one else can do it for you ]]> 2019-08-30 13:56:27 UTC https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378647868 https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378649653 I believe that the largest controller of human conduct is hope. In the middle of a fear filled situation, what always arises? Hope. In the middle of everything going wrong, hope arises to help people through things. Despite how much fear controls people, hope is there to offer people something better. ]]> 2019-08-30 14:00:56 UTC https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378649653 https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378676972 To convince me that something is true, you must have tangible evidence. or if it is an idea, it must be provable and repeatable.]]> 2019-08-30 15:06:26 UTC https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378676972 https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378679213 It is possible to live in the future, metaphorically by constantly think about the future, and disregarding the past and present. but no I dont think it is possible to live only in the present because stuff from your past and future will always impact you.]]> 2019-08-30 15:09:22 UTC https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378679213 https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378680397 Selflishness is inevitable and in some cases it is unavoidable. For example, if you always seek to help others and you let your own life slip away fro you, and you decide to gain control of your life again this can be seen as selfish but it is necessary to become a complete person.]]> 2019-08-30 15:11:53 UTC https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378680397 https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378685815 I would say that complete responsibility for your life can be desirable, but it depends. Some people rely too much on other people since even as a child you are taught to listen to your parents and do what they ask of you. However, once you become older this desire to be self-responsible has more of an emphasis placed on it since you are growing up and thus becoming more responsible.]]> 2019-08-30 15:23:46 UTC https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378685815 https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378686514 I believe that selfishness is a bad thing for the human soul because I believe that humans where meant to give back to others. Selfishness usually leads to pride, its good to have pride but having too much of it leads to selfishness. You begin to think less of others and begin thinking of yourself and yourself only. I do think it is avoidable at times, we just have to be considerate of others and humble ourselves. ]]> 2019-08-30 15:25:12 UTC https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378686514 https://padlet.com/dyoungblood55/cfequ2r8659u/wish/378687172 No, it is not possible to live only in the present.
