When living your day to day life, what rules do you go by? Local laws, religious rules, family rules? Ans do you try to get around them?

As a human, I believe we all try to get the most out of something we can. We try to squeeze it all out of the lemon we can possible. There are those who are "please lovers" and they just do as they are told to please, because they see the world is better that way. I see nothing wrong with that. Those who are just as I mentioned before, who try to get everything well...we are just that way there is no easy way to say it.

Do you think that most people are just to lazy , or uninterested to break the rules? Thanks for the response

I think it has more to do with learning through upbringing about consequences from actions. Also, knowing how life goes on with rules, and what the consequences are, that it just isn't worth breaking the law in the first place.

When you think about it, our lives are made up of having to 'obey' myriad layers of laws. Legal, Familial, Religious, and those that are the standards we have set for ourselves. I never try to get around any of them. What would be the point. But I have on occasion 'relaxed' some of them to benefit others. People learn what works for them through experience and paying attention. I'm finally old enough that those experiences have allowed me the luxury of not having to pay as much attention to the laws I obey, as it is now habit. Either that, or I'm just old and lazy! LOL

Can you ever see yourself breaking those rules for a purpose greater than the rules? Thanks for the response

The only rule I live daily is to love myself. I love myself when I do good for others so that is all I strive for. I don't know any other rules.

Do you want to be ruled by anyone? Go your own way without hurting others.
