Doing the good thing.

We all try to make our own way, don’t we?

Whatever that way is.  Some people live their lives with high moral ethics.  And by moral… I mean… the “moral” that translates into this:  The virtuous, good, righteous, and upright way.  Yes.  To be  upstanding, high-minded, principled and honorable.

Now… where ever this is defined for you…. makes no difference to me.  Whether it is in a book, on a wall, in the sky… or deep in your heart.

But nowhere in the English Dictionary Definition of “Moral” will any of us find the word judgmental.

We choose how we want to be.   That’s all.

Sometimes, we have help figuring that out.  Other times, we are on our own.

But deep down inside, I think we all know what it means to do the good thing.  The exceptional thing.  Mmmmm Hmmmmm.    To fly right.  There are circumstances where we may see gray areas… but all in all…  we know where true north is.

That old moral compass.  And Vamoose.  And Swoosh.   We are on our way.
