I would say the feeling that feels right on the moment you make the decision. Maybe you say afterwards that you're not happy with the choice you made, but at the time you made them, you believed in them.

You can only really understand the decision to be right after its made, but at the same time that as you pointed out a decision can feel right and thus it is right for you even if the result may not be good for other people, for aslong as you feel happy with it then there is no reason to feel it wrong

Yeah but you could judge on your decisions before you make them by seeing all the sides of the decisions you could see if it would be good for you and the people around you most or it would bring a bad effect on your life and on the people around you.

I consider the perception of reality of individuals to be different in ways which keeps people at opposing sides. So then what truly produces perception?

Well thats the nature of equilibrium, a balance must be upheld to allow function and what creates perceptions is human nature

when i usually think about decisions and making them, i think about what the possible outcome of each decision. it takes time to do but at it brings me comfort in knowing that i made the right decision.

"What is life , is it a place where you fight till you prove that you are excisting , is it a combination of feelings or is it a place where you try to find a person that believe in you and agrees to share the whole life just with you? Life has so many faces that we can't even understand"

Life is whatever you make it, whether you chose to fight for your existance to be acknowledged or you merely start by acknowledging your own existance, there are many ways to go about it, your actions, your feelings, and your perceptiions all govern this

but at the same time anything can happen so it can also turn out to be the worst decision simply because.
That is the choice that you make and you have to live with the outcome, that is also the way we learn, trial and error some people regret and go back on their decisions where as some like me stick to the decision you make even if its wrong for me its appart of who i am thus its show of character

But if it is wrong, you should aknowledge it and learn from your mistake, that would be the most beneficial.

True, it takes a wise person to acknowledge their mistakes.

Now for another good topic Good and Evil what are peoples views on this and that can good exist without evil or can good only exist with evil?

Just as the world isn´t black and white, objectively there is no good and evil, just as we have a variety of colors, there are a variety of experiences that would have us do what others experiences would tell them is evil.
Atleast that´s what i think

exactly good and evil is only given weight when people decide on something being good or evil but at the same time, they cant exist without each other, for good to be considered evil must be present and for good to exist evil must so that good can be acknowledged thus attaining equilibrium

Yes but we think subjectively as a whole because it is our nature as individuals and that´s why good and evil will always exist, in our minds.
