Ok so here’s the deal. Everyone is hyped up on the 365 days of photos project. You know one photo taken for everyday over the course of one year. Well I’m going do something along those lines, something with a twist. Since I spend most of my free time reading and writing I want to propose something a little different. Instead of 365 days of photos I’m embarking on 365 days of quotes. One quote for everyday for the next year. I’ll blog the quote, may jot down a few thoughts about it, who knows. Nothing fancy. Just something to think on. I like the idea. May even help my writers block. :) Kind of reminds me of my sophomore year of high school when we had to journal daily. Let’s see how this goes. I’ll do my darnedest to blog daily but in case I do miss a day…or two…which I most likely will (What can i say? Life can get down right crazy sometimes) I will make up for with extra quotes. :) So here goes.
DAY 1: Goodness is not the absence of badness. You can do nothing wrong and still do nothing right.
I think this quote pretty much speaks for itself. It’s so simple that it’s insightful and that’s why I like it. We often think of the world in black and white, right and wrong—-if you’re not doing the wrong thing you must be doing the right thing, right? Not so much. The world is tinted in shades of gray. And in order to be truly “good” we have to set out to do good, to change the world, to leave our own mark.
