What do I mean by "good"?

I mean a person who helps others with no thought of reward.

A human being who, imperfect, does their best to do kind things for their fellow man -- not expecting thanks, not looking for a pat on the back -- just because it is "right."

I have known many Xians like this.

Let me give you an example.

I planned a party for my son. I bought a special cake and baloons. As I went to put the cake in the car the balloons flew away. I was upset, but too tired to go back to the store.

I got home and discovered the store hadn't given me the decorations for the cake.

I was really upset but too tired to do anything about it. My Xian neighbor noticed I was upset and I told her why.

About 2 hours later at my door was my neighbor with balloons and the cake decorations. The stores were half an hour away and she had gotten in her car, gone to both stores, gotten both items and showed up at my door.

Did she have an ulterior motive? Only to make me feel better.

That is my definition of "good." PS she takes her kids to church every week and they attend Sunday School. When I look at her I realize that there are some really good Xians out there.
