Doing the Right Thing

I believe that people are basically good, and that although some people are better than others, everyone is trying to do the "right thing".

While it's obvious to each of us that lots of people fail at being good to others, it isn't always obvious that even those people, deep down inside, are trying to be good to themselves and to others. The goodness of others can be hidden so deep that it's hard for them to find or for us to see. Evil doesn't come from within us, it creaps into our lives from the outside and is so easy to ignore that some people become overwhelmed with it.

Nevertheless, I beleive that everyone is trying to be good.
