“Counting other people’s sins does not make you a saint.”

What does it mean to live a good and meaningful life?

How important is it for you to be kind, thoughtful, generous, and of service?

Where do you see yourself on the saint-to-sinner spectrum of human behavior?

Many of us look at life and others with a critical eye. We often make comparisons to justify our predominate good-deed-doing status, and give ourselves pretty good marks on most days.

How many “brownie points” it takes to get into Heaven, no one knows. Keeping score of other’s sins is unlikely to increase your chances. Finding fault may actually be the type of sin we all should avoid.

EXERCISE:

How can and will you more fully express your values through virtuous actions?

Where and how can you more fully seek and find the saintly efforts within your personal and professional communities?
