yes, it is the yin/yang thing... the way it simply is... too much of either one is a terrible thing... it is not only a balance here, but universal...

the best you can do is to balance yourself... you can not control or change others... you can go to war, fight/kill what 'you' or the people you fight for deem as the 'baddies' but know that they also deem you as the baddies... killing each other solves nothing tho.. but people can never seem to get over themselves, or their beliefs or religion to think for themselves long enuf to know any better... until that changes.... tis a sad sad state of affairs...

If by balance you mean that there is an everlasting 50% split each way I'd say 'not really'. I think there is a swinging pendulum between good and bad and that it all depends on ones point of view. One persons 'good' may be completely evil to another.

I like the yin/yang representation because of the way that there is a little dark in the light and light in the dark. A more interesting and aesthetically pleasing way of painting a 'gray' picture.

I would say that good people that care and give money and stuff like that are just plain goodies. But on the other hand there is those who treat the life like nothing and just expect people to repect that kind of person. Even though there way of " respect " is not worth. I may sound like off topic but this is related. Oh not done.......... on the third handthere is people who do bad stuff Sometimes and people who do Good sometimes. I'll give you an example............ say I gave $50 to the starlight foundation. The next day I kick the living daylight out of a Guy at school who stole my crayons. Those kind of people ( like me ) are those who balance life........ the others just make it complicated.
Thats all. Please any one who disagrees with me don't kill me.

There is no 'good' and 'evil', only what we perceive it to be.

well that is an eyes closed evaluation... there is no heaven/hell... or angels/demons... simply people that lean to the good side, and those that lean to the bad... there are people that love/enjoy life... there are those that share with others... there are those that will take from others, and yet more that will kill others for what they have, if not just kill for the thrill of killing... that sounds good and evil to me... at least in my perception of good/evil...

bottom line for me, is that life is precious... and all too short... it should be experienced fully, and enjoyed to the best of ones ability... i would rather not hurt anyone, but have first hand experience with 'bad' people and understand why one would kill another... it is a hell of a thing killing another person, you take away all that they have/are or ever will have/be...

if you must steal, smash and grab a shop, hurt no one in the process, but that will never happen... we are only animals after all... we have base instincts that can not be stripped away by any means... some just seem more animalistic/barbaric than others... not that other nicer people dont have the same instinct, they can be well suppressed and have to be 'dug out' to see them... others simply hide it well... but it all makes the world go around...

What I am saying is there is no 'good' and no 'evil', because they mean different things to every person.

[*DISCLAIMER:the below mentioned is only Miru's opinoin whether you feel she is right or wrong is up to you,but it is just an opinion!*]

I do believe that there is a certain boundary between "good and evil". though sometimes people dont always seem to agree with where good ends and where evil begins. how can you tell when you've crossed the line from good to evil? then you ask yourself what does "good" really mean? what does "evil" really mean? everyone has there own definition for the two. but as far as there being a balance between them? I think so.

I think so too i mean wats life without good and bad things and no one really knows the meanings of the two words. Its very similar to what is normal and what is weird. No one knows for sure and for those who dont know me I always make the best of the worst and of course someone will be evil and someone will be good but thats life right?

My personal opinion is that good/evil is all based on human perception and opinion. If someone kills a person we view that as evil. He however mite be viewing it as protection or his right. We dont know what people think so we can only guess.

Good and evil only exist because of mans belief in god/higher power. If what goes against the teachings of their religion it is asumed as evil. But some people also dont have a religion or beliefs so their view is different.

forget god/higher powers and all that BS.... just think of good/evil as right/wrong... but YOUR interpretation of right wrong...

some possible examples of MY right/wrongs...

say you are driving down the road, see someone standing in the rain waiting for a cab/bus with no cover around them to stand under... yes it is bad times to give people a ride, but you notice your umbrella laying there in the floor... you could pull over and offer it to them...

just helping people in general when you can that obviously need help...

beating an old person for their purse when you know they are going to cash/or have just cashed their pension check...

killing people because they believe in a different god than you...

and as i said, you cant balance the world, and balance is a loose term not meant to mean 50/50... yes it is more of a pendulum and no one can really affect that... the best you can do is to achieve your own balance... but you cant do that without freewill thinking for yourself, meaning believe in what you will, but do it freely and knowingly, not blindly... i know that is broad, and to most may sound more like a riddle or some such... but it is what it takes...
