I could be the worst person in the world

There, at least to me, are three ways to look at evil in the world.  Or the way people do bad things.  The easiest is when people do outright evil things.  It is just because they can.  The second is when people want to do good but evil happens anyway.  I do not fully understand the whole Susan G. Komen and Planned Parenthood thing, but in my mind that may be what is happening.  The third one, which I am guilty of, is doing nothing.  People who do not care enough to act.  I admit I am apathetic most of the time.  If it does not directly affect me then it is not my business.  Sure, I will give my commentary to Wendy.  However, I will not do anything.  I am probably high on the list of doing nothing.

When one does nothing could be the worst because it involves the most numbers.  If people do care and act, change can happen.  Ask SGK, Verizon, and other companies who tried to make a change customers did not like.

What is good and evil?  I am not an expert on that.  Is the majority always right?  Not really.  Will people who get involved do the right thing?  Sometimes not.

We are called to act.  It is important to act on what one believes.  I believe I care for my wife, but she does not know until I act on it.
