Socratic Questioning

A socratic questioning has no right or wrong answers. A socratic questioning is the questioning of our actions. This means that we need to reflect ourselves to improve for the better. We cannot always assume that what we are doing is always right and beneficial to others. The actions may even hurt our love ones.
We should always question ourselves whether are we doing the right action or the not suppose to do  action. Sometimes, it may be accepted by majority but there will the minority who does not accept the action.
Hence, let's question ourselves!
For example, you have seen someone stolen a pencil case from a book store and you did not report on him. Is it the time to socratic question yourself? Is it the right action to stole a pencil case? Have the person asked the permission or is the pencil case rightfully his? What I should have done?
Above are the questions to ask ourselves whether we are doing the right action. Hence, to the majority, we should have report and the person who stole the pencil case will also reflect on his actions. We should also think further whether we should help this person to change his thinking of stealing the item is right or wrong. After which, we improve ourselves and this will benefits others too.
