Okay, maybe that caought your eye, maybe not. Still, you're here. And by here, I'm talking about The Right Wing (hey, Carl and Rennie are doing the shameless self-promoting, I can too).
The Greater Good, from this point forward, will refer to anything I think can make this country better. I'm not talking about some Islamo-fascist blow up the infidels kind of greater good martyrdom. I'm talking about the little things in life that can make this trip a bit better for all of us.
Take a moment and consider a few things. What could you change in your life that would make your journey a bit less stressful? (And don't go overboard with the spiritual sounds in this entry, I'm looking at basic tenets of everyday life.)
Holding the door for someone. I know, mundane, right? But why do we hold doors? We don't help ourselves by this, and the person behind us is likely just as strong or able-bodied and could surely open a door by themselves. But many times we will actually go out of our way to hold open a door for someone who could do it themselves. Think for a moment. Some people are actually insulted by someone holding a door for them. I tend to think of it as a common courtesy, a simple way of saying, "Here, you don't need my help, but I'm offering it anyway as a way of being a nice guy."
That's just one of a plethora of ideas for the greater good. I hope you have some of your own.
