We are witnessing the gradual global deterioration of human morality. Everyday, there are headlines in almost every newspaper that can attest to this collapse. Simply put, most people are sadly lacking in common decency. The community as a whole is no longer our source of identity. Instead, we are each a world unto themselves, barely registering those around us. While morals typically vary from culture to culture, there are some that are ubiquitous in nature. Dr. Kent M. Keith compiled a list, with both the negative and positive aspects, of these basic ideas.

Don't Do Nothing

Hello, welcome to my blog, Don’t Do Nothing. I have intentionally used a double negative in naming this blog in order get you to stop and think about what you just read. I’m hoping by reading a sentence which you expect to be written a certain way(i.e.: without a double negative) that you will have a momentary pause as your brain resolves the conflict between what you expect to read and what your eyes are reading. My goal in doing this is to get you to consider what not doing nothing might actually imply. Another way of saying it is, it doesn’t matter what you do, just do it. Hopefully my clever ruse will work and I will have caused you to do something that is vitally important, yet often disregarded. I will have made you engage your brain and start to think.
