Being good on Good Friday?...

By Vichara


As we walk through the misty corridors of time and we contemplate the ideals, dreams and discoveries of others let us be cognizant. Let us tread carefully amongst the souls that have seen and understood the mysteries and…ok stop - enough with the flowery language! Hey since today is called Good Friday why don’t we be good to each other? Turn the “good” up an extra notch and remember how lucky the majority of us all are. Don’t think of being good to each other as being all “Pollyanna” like but try it as a natural organic expression without expectations. Try being good on Good Friday. Ahhhh, you know what, just forget about it…maybe just maybe we give it a try everyday? Wait a minute that would be crazy right? Being good to each other everyday? Hmmmm.

Did you know?
"Ruthless" can be defined as "without ruth" or "having no ruth." So what, then, is ruth? The noun "ruth," which is now considerably less common than "ruthless," means "compassion for the misery of another," "sorrow for one's own faults," or "remorse." And, just as it is possible for one to be without ruth, it is also possible to be full of ruth. The antonym of "ruthless" is "ruthful," meaning "full of ruth" or "tender." "Ruthful" can also mean "full of sorrow" or "causing sorrow." "Ruth" can be traced back to the Middle English noun "ruthe," itself from "ruen," meaning "to rue" or "to feel regret, remorse, or sorrow.
