Good people

Treasure the good people in this world. They play a big part in much of what makes life worth living.

The good people don’t seek attention. Rather, they seek truth, compassion, understanding, and connection.

Good people are quick to encourage and slow to judge. They are not naive, but neither are they arrogant.

Good people won’t berate you endlessly about how good they are. What they will do is step up, do the work, offer a kind word and a helping hand.

Good people see problems and set about to fix them. Good people recognize opportunities and inspire others to join them in fulfilling those opportunities.

Good people appreciate the beauty and value that surrounds them. They express that appreciation by working to create even more goodness.

Treasure, lift up, and support the good people in this world. After all, you are one of them.

— Ralph Marston
