Reward and Responsibility

Humans need security and it decides who they form relations with

By Seema PatelPublished about a year ago • 1 min read

People may not know

a lot other things,

but they are well-versed,

in the concept security —

and they chase it,

all their life.

They recognize,

reward from responsibility,

and they seek the former.

shirking the latter.

They connect with people,

who seem like rewards,

warm up to them,

and invite them in.

But they run away

from those who seem,

like responsibility —

they avoid them like plague,

or like a vampire.

They make a mountain,

out of a molehill,

of flaws of those

they see as burdens.

This biased mindset,

is the root cause

of all relation problems.

The attraction to rewards,

the fear of responsibility—

in the quest to security,

shapes all human bandings.
