It’s just that so often the bad is just out there, so easy to spot. While it seems you have to really look hard for the good.

What Barb said. But I have to remind myself what my dad used to say, “If you look hard enough, you can find something good in everyone.” Darn, he was right again.

He was a wise man. My father had the same sentiments. I hope I learned my lessons well.

Chiming along with Darlene’s comment, my dad believed whatever it is you’re looking for in someone is exactly what you’ll find.
I do try hard to see the good in people and I sure hope they do the same with me! 🤗

Let’s face it, we all have variable traits in our make-up, some more than others. My husband is a great example and is very charismatic (as are a few other people of my acquaintance ) It makes life more interesting…and I’ve met some good souls in my ‘long’ time on the planet. xx

I believe there are more good out there than bad but then I am an unrepentant optimist.
