I try to avoid reading or watching the news because more often than not, it's a "sad but true" story. People can be cruel to each other, to animals, and to the planet in ways no other species are. So when my dog went missing, I thought the worst. We had "Missing Dog" signs around the neighborhood, spread the word we were looking for her, put an ad on Craigslist, etc to find her.

I'm not one to depend on the kindness of strangers, but then four days, three nights after she disappeared a nice man returned her! He wanted no reward (though it was offered), he was just happy to do a good deed. I was impressed. Good people DO exist! So I'm happy to report, at least for now, my faith in the human race has been restored. Though not completely, enough to feel that our humanity isn't completely extinct!

Have you done a good deed lately? Or has someone done something for you? Please share! Thanks!

As much as I can, I am aiming to do great on everything I do everyday. Yes indeed we see alot of sad stories going around and I do not want to dwell on those things for they won't do anything good for me. I tend to help others as much as I can because I want to let them know that I am always here to listen to them and to assure them that life isn't fair at times but when you have a friend you can count on then everything is okay. Basically I want to change everything that is around me. Even if it is difficult or it may come out as life changing but at least I was able to achieve something that God would have done if He was here with us.

Anybody and everybody can be great if we all just work on that one thing we like the most. It may be singing or dancing, for as long as you have the passion to go further than where you are at then someday you will become great.

Kudos, that's an admirable goal! I think a lot of people want to do good, it's just hard knowing what to do that will make a difference. But even the smallest things, smiling at a stranger, holding a door for someone, etc, are all good things.

Good point. I don't like to dwell on the bad things either, but unfortunately my mind won't always let me forget. That's why I don't want to know. I know "ignorance is bliss but knowledge is power" but I don't think it helps anyone to know of all the evil in the world! Not to say we should shield this information from us either. We need to learn from these mistakes to become better people.

Another good point. Friends definitely have ways of making things seem okay and life seem better.

Thanks for the reply! thumbup

Well it seems the world is a cold, cruel place for many people because you are the only one who responded to my "people can be great" discussion!
