a new year

resolved: do more good

i've got a few 2011 resolutions,

the rest a bit more concrete (&

in smaller bites. do more good's

a big one, i believe. wish me luck.)

whether you opt for the

resolution thing or not

(i don't every year, but

this one seems a bright

time for a start), i wish

you a new year full of

wonders. good ones.

We have learned to say that the good

must be extended to all of society

before it can be held secure

by any one person or class;

but we have not yet learned

to add to that statement,

that unless all [people]

and all classes contribute to a good,

we cannot even be sure that it is worth having.
