Have you ever looked into the eyes of a child and seen so much potential and excitement for life that it just made you smile? Did you think to yourself, that this child is going to do something amazing with his or her life, even if she doesn’t know it yet? Do you see that same look in your own eyes when you look in the mirror each morning? If you answered yes then that…
We have all heard the saying that, “the pen is mightier than the sword.” This adage, coined by English author Edward Bulwer-Lytton in 1839, was meant to demonstrate that the written word, or the press, is a more effective weapon than direct violence. In short, the written word can be a threat to far more people than just about any other weapon. And in that time period, the saying was very true. There were no…
When I was younger, and ironically enough thought that I had all the answers, I spent a great deal of time, effort and energy trying to force open doors and follow a path that was not meant to be mine. I was certain that with enough effort and determination, I could make that path my own. But it was not until many years later that I achieved the wisdom that was needed to embrace the…

Everyone has their own “happy place” and should visit it as often as possible! We all deserve a break to relax, think, not think or just let the mind wander… my place is definitely a beach or on a reef if I can get to a dive spot. But the important part is remembering to take that much needed time to recharge. You will not fall further behind by taking a break as it will…
The coexistence of every one of us with one another has been quite two-sided; lowly peaceful and highly hateful, in our cohabitations. We, in most cases, want to hold on to people’s fault against us, wanting to keep a perfect relationship amongst ourselves to a state of hate at any instance of imperfection from our fellow man. Forgiveness (forgiving one another) is an important attribute we as a whole should clamor for, yearn to possess…
It’s hard for me to believe that See The Good has been up and running for seven months now, but it has. And I wanted to take a few moments and say thank you to everyone who has become a part of the site in one way or another. I am very fortunate to have many fantastic readers who are so much more than generous with their kind words of encouragement and support. When this…
I awoke gradually at 3:15 a.m. I thought it was from the usual nocturnal nudge by my kidneys to head down the hallway. Yet, something else was nudging me. My bedspread was awash in the glow from my window. I glanced out, already knowing the generous source. The full moon was high in the sky in all her glory. I heard her speak loudly in a beckoning language, begging me to put on my glasses,…
Helping a needy person is a blessing. Whenever one helps a needy person, joy is experienced in one’s life. This joy is possible when one has a personal relationship with Jesus. Experiencing joy whenever serving a needy person is possible for all. But who is the needy person? A needy person could be he who is sick and requires someone to run some errands for him. Maybe your neighbour cannot buy the necessary food for…
