What Inspires You To Do Good?

[lightbulb247]

and why?

[woofgang]

Because I enjoy it :)

[doctordb]

Lots of different reasons but mostly, like woofgang, I enjoy it. I'll admit sometimes I even stoop so low as to think 'what's in it for me' but I quickly tell myself off.

Actually it's for all the same reasons that I do bad things. ;)

[ummmm]

Nothing inspires me to be good. I think it comes naturally.

[lightbulb247]

but do you agree that it is easier to be bad than to be good? lots of people say that, but is it true?

[woofgang]

nope

[erin-x]

Karma.....

Nah! Lol!

I love being helpful and nice to people and doing favours to help people, I enjoy it so much I made it my profession.

//but do you agree that it is easier to be bad than to be good? lots of people say that, but is it true?//
No it isn't true, I see very few opportunities to be bad but very many opportunities to be good.

An interesting question and has made me look again at why I do the things I do.

I support charities for the homeless.....probably because I was put out on the street by a crazy mother at fifteen. To not have a home of any sort is a bugger.

My parents made me leave school as early as they legally could......could be why I worked in education...usually with the ne'er-do-wells. To have access to education is so important. :-)

I cannot imagine existing without easy access to water.....so I support charities providing water.

So I try to do a bit of good.....and quite a bit of wicked too....;-)

"What Inspires You To Do Good?"

Nothing. It comes naturally since I am a miss goody goody. :)

[RATTER15]

Lazygun, you will now be smited for extracting the pee!

[LazyGun]

.... only joking..... :)

The golden rule - treat others as you yourself would like to be treated.
Second rule: Judge people as individuals, not exemplars of stereotypes.

Oh yer... what LazyGun said also -
"god - because I am scared I will be smited if I do bad stuff..."
