The Making of a Villain

 Guess, we have all heard it million times that we are not born a villain. Our upbringing makes our personality. And sometimes our choices too. 

When a person begins to feel that his or her negative sides are a better companion for their survival, things begin to take a turn differently. Nobody is born a villain. No parent choice fully teaches their child to lie, to deceit, to take revenge or to become selfish. It is someone's circumstances and an outburst of their inner agony that leads to the seeding of such personality traits. 

As a person begins to feel comfortable being a liar, truth seems like a heavier burden. As a person begins to feel profited by cheating and betrayal strategies, honesty feels like a choke in the gut. As a person begins to feel relieved by harming people, forgiveness feels like a guiltier ride. As a person enjoys the privileges' that come with a selfish behaviour, there is no turning back from that guilty pleasure, is there?

People do not choose to be villains for the classic filmy fun of it. Neither anyone realizes the process nor chooses to walk on the path to become so. It rather happens when life begins to seem easier taking the diabolic roads which promise the road to success and of course, lures the moth to the candle flames. I don't think there is any reason why one or two wrong choices or guilty pleasures will make your appearance monstrous. After all what harm did you do anyway? 

But then, it begins to become a habit. And then you begin to become an intolerantly intolerable un-human subject who treats people like objects. And of course you will not turn your back to see who was hurt.

 Anyways. 

Remember that no moth is ever aware of how the warmth and light of the candle would actually burn its wings. Villainous traits might seem to give you a feet above the ground. Only to break your leg- impairing you through the mental layers and folds. You might have chosen differently till now. It doesn't mean that you have to keep choosing it. Villainous actions, indifferent behaviour, disrespectful attitudes are cool and fun. Burden less, worry less, care free. But these makes us hollow and shallow. 

There is no point in choosing to be selfish when all you learned in your nursery was sharing is caring.

There is no point in being a vigilante, when your nursery rhyme was called kindness is the biggest virtue. 

There will never be a point in being a liar or a cheater, when honesty is the best policy. 

Choices make a Difference, when you make a Different Choice.
