What do you define goodness as?
Why does goodness matter to you, your community, and our world?
How can we cultivate goodness in our every day lives?
Who inspires you to think, do, and be good?
Dictionaries define goodness as “the quality or state of being good” from the Old English godnes meaning “goodness, virtue, kindliness”. The idea of goodness is in many Buddhist, Islamic, and Christian teachings and been passed on by modern leaders like Ghandi, Martin Luther King and the Dalai Lama. But what exactly is goodness anyway and what does it mean to be good?
