Seems like that word is forgotten more than ever nowadays. Our generation was raised to always do the right thing. Our moral compass was set on right, not wrong or selfish. Do unto others as you would have done unto you.
I follow the rules. I stop at all stop signs, no matter how late I am. I put the cart away when I shop and use one. I pick up the remnants of Emma's 2 walks a day. This week I even let two people with less than 3 items go in front of me at the store when I had a buggy plum full and coupons to be managed.
In this last month doing the right things seems useless. It is a virtual mine field in our community, some guy blew at me and kept flashing his high beams at me on the way home from Blanchester because I wasn't going fast enough for hIm and then to top it off, when I was working on my upcoming Zumbathon event, I got smacked in the face by my very own olive branch.
Discouraging as it is, that bible verse found me, it lifted my spirits and reminded me that I am that person. We are only as good as our actions and my actions, although sometimes may be confused with someone's insecurities and fears, are intended to be good.
My heart is good, my intentions only to be helpful, honest, and humble. But most of all, I, MYSELF will continue to,
