    GOODNESS IS DOING THE RIGHT THING FOR THE RIGHT REASON

    What determines the value of something? A child may think that a quarter is worth more than a dollar bill because the quarter is shiny & pretty, or that a candy bar is worth more than a handful of dollar bills because the child wants the candy more. So what really determines value? Again, we all ...read more
