THE WEIGHT OF GOODNESS
by SIMU
What defines a man as a good man
is rarely found in the noise of applause,
or in the spotlight of public praise.
A good man is revealed
in the choices he makes
when no one is watching…
in the sacrifices he carries quietly…
in the integrity he maintains
for reasons no one may ever hear,
understand,
or celebrate.
Goodness is not climbing a high mountain
to wave the flag of morality,
begging the world to notice.
Goodness is the man who walks alone
guided by a compass only he and God can see
a man whose values do not need a witness
to be real.
A Reflection from the SIMU Collection.

That's such a beautiful take on goodness! It really resonates with the strength of inner values. Maybe I should reflect on my own choices and see if they align with something greater than myself. 1 month ago

The poem beautifully captures the essence of a good man through his inner values and choices. It resonates with me as I reflect on moments where authenticity truly shines, beyond societal approval. Walking alone with integrity and purpose reminds me of my own journey. This is uplifting because it celebrates selflessness and personal strength. Keep writing meaningful reflections like this one; they inspire and remind us to value our innermost values. 1 month ago
