run amok

Nothing can make you feel happier than being true to yourself. One can fool anyone but himself! Very well done, Sam! :)

So my friend you want to say that 'man' by nature is a 'brute' or 'devil'. This is totally against the Indian perception.........Our philosophy says that man by nature is 'God' but acquires all inhuman characters due to his wandering mind and craving heart and when once he starts seeking the truth of himself, realizes HIM

Be natural and original without missing the philosophy of life. 'Do not try to be good' - I think that you have used 'good' to mean 'unnatural'. Otherwise it requires a reflection.

This is different sounding advice for sure. Everyone is always all about duty and always unhappy. Perhaps the value of some moderation is what appeals here..(smile)

Excellent lines.It is important to be natural.Do what you want to, of course as long as it does not harm others.But how many of us can do that, we get carried away by some artificial norms and ethics.
