People Amaze Me Every Day

People amaze me every day. Some for the good and some for the bad. Does it seem we are getting dumber with each passing sunset? Can it be we are on overload? Can we not see how we are hurting others all around us? I see and find good from time to time. Why is the good not there all of the time. Where are we headed to heaven or hell? One's words and actions do tell. Date: 1/10/2020 Written Honorable Mention 1/10/2020 STRAND SELECT 8, any form, any theme Contest Judged: 1/10/2020 Sponsored by: Brian Strand

The good "is there all the time". I think it is our choice whether or not to bring it out and OFTEN! Nicely done, Paula.

It's become a "what's in it for me" world, Paula, and people seem to grow more selfish day by day. Thanks for reminding your readers about the importance of kindness.

You are right, Paula; we know the difference between right and wrong, so it should not be so hard for us to decrease wrong and increase good. Like that this world could be a much better place. Regards // paul
