Distinguishing between what feels good, and what is good!
By zevi770 · May 3, 2013
We immediately associate what feels good with what is good; this is how all animals live, love/pleasure, hate/pain
But of course, we have minds
If I asked you, what is good?
I am sure you would say love, compassion, goodness and kindness
Do they instinctively feel good, yes and no
You see two worlds opposing each other, God created
Instinctively, pleasures and pain, create an additive feeling, but the moment we indulge, the pleasure dissipates, as opposed to goodness and kindness, and what is right and noble; they don’t create addictive feelings, they are perceptions of right and wrong, nobility or wretchedness, good or bad, however after we do them, the afterglow lasts eternally!
