Of good, evil & power

March 5, 2010

We all have power of one sort or another.
Personal power. Political power.
Professional power. Power within our families.
Or in our social group.

The measure of a man or woman is how they choose to exercise that power.

I discovered recently that someone I know well used power to hurt someone.

It’s very true that power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

Some people lose their way.
Others are toxic.
Or have never found their way.

It’s up to each one of us to decide
if we’re going to use our power for good or for evil.
