It's so easy to be wicked without knowing it...

It's so easy to be wicked without knowing it, isn't it?

L. M. Montgomery, Anne of Green Gables, 1908
Canadian novelist (1874 - 1942)

Surfing around the net for quotes a while ago made me saw this.

When I encountered this quote, it made me think, "Can you really be wicked without knowing it?"
In what way do you become wicked? How do you become wicked? or "Why is it easy to become wicked without knowing it?"

I've had a friend. He was telling me once, that one day he had a vacation from school and became sick during his vacation. He didn't do anything but rest until he finishes his vacation.

Arriving to school after the vacation, he found himself "hated" by his friends. Right when he stepped inside the classroom for his first class. His friends, didn't pay attention to him, didn't even look at him, didn't even greet him with a simple "hi".

He just ignored it and lived his life like it was still the same. But it continued on...

Days after that, his friends aren't talking to him anymore, they don't tell where they are, they don't hang out with him. It's like he doesn't exist anymore.

Now he was confused. He didn't do anything bad to them the previous days before he went on vacation, even during the time he was on vacation. But that thing happened. He didn't even get the courage to ask now that he felt they don't need him anymore.

Do you call that a "wicked-without-knowing experience"?

 I've had my experiences like that discussed above, but even I don't know the answer.

Someday...  I'll know the answer to that question.

Hopefully, someday...
