IS CHEATING JUSTIFIABLE?

Economist says human wants are limitless but again would we now credit this theory to the rate of cheating in relationship,public offices and religious homes  in recent times?
or would we credit it to the rate at which poverty has taken hold on our economy?
or would we credit it to the rate at which our norms,culture and tradition are been eroded by westernization?
these and many more crept my mind as i write.lets pick on these three point
Human wants
Economic poverty
Westernization
Human wants are limitless,yes we know that but do we now say because wants are limitless then engage in cheating to satisfy our limitless wants?
Economic poverty:the economic situation of a country before all her citizens,not even the rich is exempted.i know some persons might stroke what i just said but believe me,the rich also cries!nothing is absolutely perfect,not even the earth is completely round
Westernization: our norms,cultures and traditions are gradually fallen before our eyes,our people no longer see wrongs in their act of cheating and other forms that goes with it,hence they now see it as a ''normal thing'',a style and a way of life  to them.some call it emancipation,some call it freedom or free will.call it whatsoever name you want but i say its a culture of impunity and waste.i call it EVIL!
what has happened to SELF ESTEEM,DIGNITY,PRIDE,TRUST and TRUTH?
i weep most times when i see the depth at which this EVIL has crept  into our culture,am sure God and our ancestors weeps too at the rate which this evil is going.
have we ever asked ourselves these question...
What legacy are we going to pass to our future generation?
if we cheat this bad,how will next generation and others after it look like?
what about karma and retributive justice laws?
these and many more thoughts flood my mind as none is exempted.the old cheats,the young too,so also in relationships and marriages,boys cheat,girls cheats,even ''virgins'' kpakpa cheats too.who will believe this?
Talking about virgins cheating,let me tell you a short true life story.i once dated a virgin for 5yrs hoping to marry her when she finishes school this year.though there were rough and bad times but we sailed through.recently last year November,i noticed when i went to see her in school,someone mentioned a guy's name.the conversation was like this...''who is this?we don't know any other person apart from '...''a name was called,of which it wasn't mine.we laughed over it but i dint end it there,i kept my ears to the ground until around February 17 ,something suspiciously happened.i got an insider and the truth was revealed.she has been seeing someone in her department by that same name mentioned earlier but i couldn't believe it so i decided to play on and show her more love,hoping with time i will find out it was all lies but her attitude worsened and a second person verified her cheating.this time i couldn't take it anymore as i was disappointed,i backed out.
All these while,i kept thinking,trying to see reasons why a so called virgin would cheat...OK lets try and justify her this way,maybe she wanted a caring loving tall sexy fine and rich guy...at-list lets not add ''good in bed'' because she still a virgin and promise to keep it till marriage[reported speech]. i compared all these,i saw that i and the guy weren't  mate,i was so far ahead.about being rich,although am not yet working with oil companies but I've got something nice doing that can fend for her compare to a departmental date.
 Back from the story,u will find out that everyone has a story to tell on this evil ravaging our culture,economy,public offices,religious homes and all facets of life.leaders involve in mass cheat as public funds are been diverted into personal gains,the list is endless.why don't we try something more challenging by loving ourselves and treat each other the way we want to be treated?that's a million dollar question that will echoes through eternity.....I see greed in their eyes.i see lies,deceit in their lips.i see lust in their heart.i see desperation in their veins.i see cheats in their blood and i see karma befallen them.
In all of these,cheating is no way justifiable neither will human want,economic poverty nor westernization justify any act of cheating.it crumbles a nation.it divides homes,friendship and communal living.it kills economic development and the will to fight for a better world
