Most people are good
I was walking very briskly this morning as it has turned cold here in our lovely vacation isle of denial. It was 54° this morning – yikes! I saw the Great Blue Heron circling the small island in the lagoon in the park, and then the Great Egret tucked beside a tree.
A thought occurred to me – do you realize that 99% of the readers who have responded to my blog over the past five years are good? I divided them in my mind into three categories – the readers have either 1) cheered my successes, 2) identified with my failures, and/or 3) supported me when I’ve stumbled.
Since my respondents are from as far away as Korea and as close as around the corner – that is a pretty good measure of people in general in my book. I truly believe that if you proceed with the idea that people are mostly good, then you will meet mostly good people. And vice versa.
