All Of Us Has Our Darkside: Devil Inside By INXS




One thing I learned about human nature is that we are not perfect. We all have virtues as well as our flaws and when a situation presents itself, sometimes our dark sides emerge. We try our best to suppress it whenever we interact with others because we want to show the good part of ourselves. Still, once something ticks us off, that's when the horns start to grow out of our heads and we express our darker nature. When it comes to the exposure of our darksides, the song "Devil Inside" by INXS comes to mind.

A lot of times, we do our best to be good in our interactions with others. There are times, however, when we are put in situations where it brings out the bad in us. It could be desire for something or someone, desperation or just plain anger of something that someone did. Whatever it is, red flags go up and before you know it, you start changing inside out and become something people never expected you to be. In that mode, all hell will break loose and anyone caught in between will be a victim. As much as you don't want it to come out, it will if one is pushed to the limit.

What does this tell us? Simply that there will come a time when our aggressive nature kicks in when given the right situation. A lot of times, it's a response to a very hostile action which prompts a reaction. As much as we don't want it to happen, it will. Let's just hope that nothing happens which can trigger our bad side.
