The good man

Happy birthday mr. Jimmy Carter. That was a surprise, I have been looking at John F. Kennedy, Bill Clinton and other, to seek inspiration to what we are going to do in the next election with Joe.

But you kind of went beneath my radar. Stupid of me, I can see it now, you did something no other president did before you, you United the nation after a time of conflict.

When we look at the situation today, what is the thing we are working with? Exactly that, we come from a time with conflict and problems, and we need to solve these issues of division, and find common ground.

What I was most impressed with, was the fact, that your basic method was quite simple, you did everything you did, with the utmost integrity. In other words, you did what you did, to make an impact on the world with the aim of making a better world.

You can be a Democrat or a Republican, but we both agree on the fact, that what we aim at, is a better world.

This may sound simple, but more often than not, it is the most difficult, because it rests on your character. Power corrupts, and the ability to make your wish come through often makes you do things, because there is no consequence. But goodness is what you do, when no one looks. The good deeds you do, when no one knows.

Good deeds you do in public is, more often than not, a way to show off your own good sides.

Strong character is the answer to this enigma.

What do you do, when no one looks?

Are you then also the good guy, and Jimmy, that amazing about you, were, that you were actually a good guy, also when it did not give you any benefit.

This is a very great example, we can all learn from.

G-d bless the will to do good, when no one is looking at what you do, because that is truly the mark of a good man.
