Until right and wrong both hurt someone you care about. Who taught you which one to prioritize?
A.W.T.G.G
We all believe
we’re the good guys.
Are we the
good guys?
WITHOUT HESITATION.of
course
we are.
Until the ground shifts beneath us, and standing still becomes a quiet decision to look away.
Until the idealized story we tell about ourselves is tested by the uncomfortable facts of what we actually do.

A.W.T.G.G?
DIFFERENT WEIGHT.Nobody
wakes up
believing they’re
the
villain.
We explain.
We justify.
We remember differently.
A different word.
The same action.
TAP A WORD. NOTICE WHAT CHANGES. AND WHAT DOESN’T.
What
about you?
It’s easier when it’s someone else.
Your closest friend makes a mistake at work.
Someone else is about to take the blame.
Your friend asks you to say nothing.
Someone who hurt you asks to come back into your life.
They miss you. They still haven’t apologised.
Every decision protects one person and sacrifices another.
Notice which one you instinctively chose to spare.
A reason can explain a decision.
It doesn’t make the decision good.
Perspective explains why you did it.
It doesn’t undo what it did to them.
Harm does not disappear because you gave it a softer name.
maybe being good
isn’t something you are.
MAYBE IT’S
SOMETHING
YOU KEEP
CHOOSING.
ARE WE
THE GOOD
GUYS?
You don’t need a verdict.
You have another decision to make.
WE WILL
AND ALWAYS
BE.
WE WILL
ALWAYS TRY.
Good isn’t a side.
It’s a decision.
