Manic Monday #2
Do you believe people are basically good?
This is a tough one… if you watch a toddler for an hour, you will decide that people will inherently push the boundaries and test the limits set upon them. Constantly. Then look at the typical teenage boy… ’nuff said. Vandalism is something that I just don’t get. Anger, depression, filthy language, sarcasm, violence and more seem to be becoming more and more prevalent in our society – unfortunately.
But, I want to believe that the majority of the population will try to be “good” even though it is impossible for us to truly be good. We are born evil… we are born with a sin nature, and cannot ever (in our own strength) come to a place where we in and of ourselves are good.
So, I guess my answer is yes and no. Many of us want to be, but we are inherently “not good”
If you could change the custom of shaking hands, what would you replace it with?
I’m not sure… waving? I wouldn’t want to replace it with hugging, because I’m not comfortable with total strangers that close to me. I like having my bubble of space around me. Kissing on the cheek would fall under that “uncomfortable” category. Yes, it’s sad, but it’s true! I’m not the most “open” person if I don’t know you. If I know you well, however, expect to recieve a hug instead!
What is something that you enjoy that is a chore for most other people?
Baking bread? Cooking? Do most people consider these a chore? There are days that I do, but in general I really do enjoy preparing things to bless my family.
That’s just a bit more about me! How about you?
