The Unwritten Book

There is an unwritten book of life's rules. As much as we all feel that we are independent thinkers, we all know that there are certain rules in life that need to be adhered to. They do not need to be put on paper. They are ingrained in our minds from early childhood. One chapter is "Right or Wrong". Even the most horrible people know when they are doing something wrong. A thief knows that he is stealing and a liar knows he has lied. They do it anyway but they are well aware that they are breaking the rules as they do it. Just being human means that we have a manual inside our brain. Some people read it before they act. Other people gloss over it. Then there are the people that feel that reading it is only a waste of time. Those are the people that I try to avoid.
