Notes on Pairs

This is a snippet of some notes I've been sitting on for a few months--I remember writing these late at night on my smart phone and I don't remember what I was going to do with them, whether they were meant to be an article or part of a story idea or what exactly I was going to do with them. Every week when I check the notes on my phone I see this and keep meaning to use it for something, so I figure I'll just post it with the preface that these are just notes and may not actually lead to a conclusion

Two identical, similar or corresponding things that are matched for use together.

Why are they put together? Because it makes it easier to accomplish things and some things can't be done with just one half of a pair (think scissors)

It's much easier and more efficient to be paired than separated and occasionally tow unpaird things are just two worthless objects because they are not paired (atomic bonds, scissors, etc).

Some separated pairs serve an entirely different functions whent ehy are not paird or can do a different functions better by not being paired (...the pair holds it back?--but I can't think of an example).

So what is their true purpose? The one[function] that can be fulfilled unpaired (if not in a pair) or a function that can be fulfilled only as a pair?

And What of people?
when people have been paird, of course it's easier to perform certain fu nctions. It's also easier and more fulfilling (accomplishes it's purpose), to perform functions without the other pair or part of the equation--when that other pair is missing...(Again, I can't think of a specific example).

Is it easier to be good or bad depending on who or what a person is paired with? Is it harder to be the opposite (good or bad) without the other matching pair?

Normal, sane individuals would have a hard time doing good or bad if they weren't paired with objects or people who influence them to do one or the other.

The true nature of an individual is not his or her influences then, because when paired with one or the other he or she will be influenced by them.

The true nature of a person then is his or her desires and ability to resist persuasions that go against their true desires.
