We Talk Friday
(WTF)
This is a semi-regular series that I will run on Fridays to hold discussions on a current topic from the week gone. The aim is to keep them light and conversational, though some might be heavier - regardless of the content topic itself though, just have some fun engaging and discussing with whoever happens to put in the effort in the comments section below.
For a bit of a different WTF conversation this week, I am looking to crowdsource some perspectives and opinions on what makes a good person. I think it is often pretty clear what makes a bad person, though there are many caveats involved, but when it comes to defining what is good, what do you look for? How do you describe a good person in a couple sentences? What traits are involved and is there a uniform base level set of traits a good person must have? Is a good person always good? Can a bad person become a good person? Can a good person turn bad?
Some of these questions seem pretty obvious to answer, but I suspect that most of us haven't actually put much thought into our definition of a good person, and instead just use our intuition to decide. The same intuition that chooses the wrong partners. The same intuition that judged that person incorrectly. The same intuition that we almost never audit to see if it is indeed accurate.
I am heading to bed a bit earlier tonight, so will get to comments in the morning or so, but I am hoping for two things in the comments.
It would also be great to see people engaging with others to discuss perspectives further, since there might be cultural differences, unexpected views, or maybe some "I wish I'd thought of that" points.
And as always, have some fun with it too.
