Meditations on God

It is possible to be too nice.

You can be so nice that you have no opinion and no real point of view.

You can be so nice that you do not stand for anything and are of no real use to anyone.

You can be so nice that people walk all over you and take advantage of you.

Being nice in this way is a form of hiding, and it does not serve you or anyone else.

The aim is not to be nice, but to be good.

You will find that you are much happier, kinder, and more useful when goodness, not niceness, is your focus.
