Goodness

"Goodness is the only investment that never fails."

-Henry David Thoreau

This is a true statement we make many investments throughout our life. We may invest in jobs, money, stock, or other good offers. Sometimes investments we invest in might fail. However, the only investment that never will fail is goodness. An act of kindness will never fail. But, if you invest in bad things chances of you failing are 85% likely. An example in investing in something bad is harming someone or doing something that isn't prohibited. Your consequences for your bad actions can be jail time, probation, or service community service hours. An investment that will never fail is your good deed. Happiness and success will come your way. All your actions do come with a reaction but it's all in the choices you make that will determine weather it will be a good reaction or bad reaction. If we all just spread love the world will be a happier place and failure would not be in our minds just doing something as small as giving someone a smile down the hall might make someones day. You never know today might be the day you light up someones day.
