Right Every Wrong


Ich.  This ones for you...
 
Back from a 6 day bus trip from Texas to California and back.  I slept 17 hours in my own bed.  Coffee tastes and feels particularly good this morning.  I woke up thinking about all the anger in the world and wondered.  How much wrong are we responsible for correcting in the world? 
 
It would seem like an easy answer, but it's really not.  Suppose, you see a bus driver verbally abusing a fragile old lady.  Do you stop it?  Probably.  Suppose you see a mother yelling at her baby.  Do you stop it?  Maybe.  Suppose, throughout out the day you continually see bad things happen.  Everytime you step up to correct a wrong there is risk to yourself and your family.  How many times do you step up?
 
You get tired.  You only have so much energy.  How many wrongs are your responsibility?
