I ask if you could read this, and post back what you feel.
If you go out and do something good for someone else, and after words you think I did a good thing I should be rewarded does that make it a bad thing? If you see someone in need and think if I help them I will be rewarded for doing a good thing- does that make it a bad thing? If you a good thing and never think of it again does it matter? Should one count the good things they did? Does bragging of doing good deeds, decrease their value? If you see a good deed and walk by it does that make you a bad person? Does it matter what the deed is to make it worth more than another or does it not matter because a good deed is as good as another?
There are two people who pass each other in a store. The first person sees that there is a glass item about to fall on the floor and break and without thinking about it they push it back into safety. Person two knocks over clothing from the rack and keeps walking by it. Person one sees a shirt on the floor and picks it up. Person two sees that it is raining outside and the little old woman is heavy with bags, has no umbrella and cant find her car keys, and walks away. Person one see the woman and hurries to her aide, getting soaked and all their own bags getting wet. Person goes to pick up their wet bags and does not see the car speeding across the parking lot, person two comes from out of nowhere and grabs person one out of the way just in time. No one will remember person one as person two is praised and rewarded. Person two is cheered and held high for doing such a good thing and person one smiles most gracefully, thankful to be alive. Person two goes home with much ado and joy, person one must now go back in and purchase everything that had been run over. Inside the store again, person one picks up another shirt and puts it way, and finishes shopping.
1) Did person one or person to do the better deed?
2) Does it matter?
3) Should it?
4) In the end did who made the bigger difference?
5) In the end who will make the bigger difference?
6) Which person are you?
7) Which person would you be?
8) Which person do you want to be?
9) Who do you want to be near you?
10) Who do you want to be around you?
