When you hear that someone robbed something, you automatically think it's bad. It's a thought that just comes naturally to you, because something in your conscience tells you that it is. Most people have stolen something, and yes I have too.
Stealing is basically taking something that doesn't belong to you, whether it's physical or metaphorical. A physical example- jacking a phone or some money. A metaphorical example, which most people don't think of as stealing- taking the credit for something you haven't done.
Sometimes people steal for what they think is apparently a 'good' reason. A 'good' reason being that they stole money to buy medicine that they were in dire need of. Ok, so that doesn't really happen, nevertheless it is still a good excuse for stealing.
Sometimes people steal to fit in with their friends, or a particular crowd, where stealing is the norm. However, do they ever stop to ask themselves: are these people worth it? Sometimes all it takes is a moment to stop and think. Kind of like when you're crossing the road- simple :)
And sometimes people are brought up in that sort of environment, where stealing isn't seen as something particularly 'wrong' as such, but more a way of getting by. But even so, everybody still has a choice to break out from that routine. And yes, it is hard to do that, but making choices vary difficulty. Some are easy and some are hard, but in the end, it's something you have to learn to live with- making decisions.
Stealing is wrong, it's not something that can be justified. Just make the right decision, whether that be in breaking out from a routine or not stealing that sweet you think no one can see you're going to take. Just don't steal. Simples ;)
