WE HAVE THE RIGHT

We have the right.

So often the term “right” is given way too much flexibility. Everything is open to interpretation, but there is a huge difference between fulfilling one’s rights and infringing upon other’s rights. Certainly, we have the right to pursue our own happiness, whatever that might mean. But if it takes making someone else unhappy, than it’s not okay. That being said, there are some exceptions to that rule: Freedom of Speech: if you say something that makes someone unhappy, that’s trivial.

I guess that everyone does have the right to say what they want, do what they want, etc. etc. It’s what makes us human. The condition I’d like to add to that, however, is that you have to be considerate of how your actions affect everyone else around you. So…we have the right to pursue happiness…so long as it’s coupled with empathy.

AND OF COURSE

THE RIGHT
