"What's right isn't always popular. What's popular isn't always right." Albert Einstein

Example: If there is 99 people at a party and you make the 100th person, that is choosing the wrong. You see people all around you smoking and drinking, which is choosing the wrong. Just because this is popular doesn't mean it is right.

Reflection: What this quote means is that even if most people are deciding to choose the wrong, you shouldn't fall under the influence of bad things. It doesn't make it popular if everybody does it, it just makes it wrong.Wrong is wrong even if everybody is doing it. Right will always be right, even if you are the only one choosing the right.You should be the person who chooses the right, even when the majority is choosing the wrong. You should be the person to go against the crowd if you know that you are choosing the right. You should do what you feel in your heart is right, instead of following a crowd of bad people. Surround yourself with good people, and you will be a good person too. You should choose the right no matter what situation you are in. Choosing the right will always make you a better person. You shouldn't agree to anything that is not right, or that you are not quite sure about. You should always abstain from choosing the wrong even if you are under pressure. If society's expectations follow the path of doing wrong, then create your own path of doing good. Choosing the right will always bring you success, rather than choosing the wrong which will bring you failure.
