Good Goodness, and other Goodness


I think there are two kinds of goodness:  Cold goodness, which is when you are in the presence of somebody so good you are afraid of making a mistake; and warm goodness, where the person just shines goodness and makes you feel good being with them

Does that make sense?

I think Jesus was the second sort.  Where people could feel his goodness, like a shining light.  It lights up the darkness of your life, and makes you warm again, without burning you with its intensity.

Are we good?  Or just a goody-twoshoes?  Do we make people feel better about themselves, or just judged.

It is a tough one.

I hope I can be a little bit more of the good one than the other one.
