    How does one see the good or bad in a human being? In Flannery O’Connor’s “A Good Man Is Hard to Find,” the line between these two concepts becomes a blurry combination that lacks true distinction from one over the other.

Paul Bloom summed up our lives into this quote, “We are constituted so that simple acts of kindness, such as giving to charity or expressing gratitude, have a positive effect on our long-term moods. The key to the happy life, it seems, is the good life: a life with sustained relationships, challenging work, and connections to community.” Bloom mentions the good life, which urges the questions of what is the good life and how does one achieve it.…

    Great People Are Heroes, Not Good People You are not a hero, but do not worry, most people are an average Joe. The people that are selfless, or risk everything to help someone else, and shame others with their courage are the ones we can call heroes. We no longer give honor to the top. Loosely using the term “hero” results in the loss of the true meaning of the word, and how it was once used. Society needs to change the use of “hero” in order to acknowledge real heroes.

    “He who despairs of the human condition is a coward, but he who has hope for it is a fool,"-Albert Camus. The Human Condition represents the ideas, problems, and abilities that people have. People can be capable of great love; but also are capable of hate, torture, rape, and war. The main concern is if humans are innately good or bad. Are humans both good and bad, born with one or the other, or taught to be good or bad? In the fiction dystopian novel, Lord of the Flies, by William Golding,…
