Great Construction

Good and Bad

     A bad person says, “These good people are outrageous. They always get in my way when I try to do something bad.”
     Indeed, when thought of in these terms, the bad person does have a point. This is because what interferes with bad people are obstacles such as laws, the police, and courts that were created by good people. Or maybe not, I don’ t know for sure It is probably so, but I am guessing as I write.
     No sour grapes, but there are those who criticize us. Still, every time they do so, we do not become angry. That is because we are proud to have interfered with bad people.
