Confused :(

Past two days unexpectedly our application is working fine inspite of all the bugs we managed to introduce. So I had no other work than to go through the blog world. From emotional rantings to 26/11 issues to pachakam to comedy and finally I am back in my blog which has been dormant for a long time now. How do people express such firm views about life or about happeneings around them? This is one of the blogs that I visited. It gave me the idea that people are so sure of themselves. I have seriously started thinking if there is something wrong with me, because I can't assert. For the sake of arguement I can say yes this is right and that is wrong. But in my heart always the doubt prevails. For a simple example there is my maid servant. She always demands money on some pretext or another. My husband wants to grand them saying she is poor. It is true that she is poor and is in need of the 100 Rs, than we are in need for the same amount. But my neighbour says its not wise to pay them (already we have paid twice) in advance because when they find we are vulnerable they ask us for more. That is also true, as I know that so far my maid has asked money from us only, and not from other houses where she is working. So now I am in a dilemma as to what to do. Somebody please tell me what is the right and wise decision in this scenario? :(
In the bigger pisture, there are terror attacks around the world. Is that wrong? Honestly I don't know. There is a saying about wars - "Winners are always right :)". I am not sure if that can be applied in case of terrorism. But terrorists can always argue that they are fighting for a cause, a cause which is not accepted by majority. So coming back to the question of right or wrong - May be its just a perception of human mind. Recently I read a quote some where "An optimist always see green light where as a pessimist sees red light. But a truly wise person is color blind". But my problem is I am not wise also. I see half green and half red and that is driving me mad :(
