What does ‘good’ mean?

We all hear the word ‘good’ in our everyday life. Be a good person, do good deeds. But what does good mean to everyone?

To some people, good means to be get high grades and be smart. To others, it might mean being kind and helpful. Still others, confident and upstanding. But what’s important is to be true to yourself. To be - or try your best to be - your own meaning of good.

Even though it might be easy to call good ‘perfect’, I don’t think that anyone is actually perfect. Everyone has strengths, and everyone has flaws. Here’s what I think: that being a good person doesn’t mean being flawless. It means trying your best to be your vision of good, and trying your best to overcome your flaws. And that’s what I think good means.
