The Bluestocking 2022-23

Rachel Bernstein | Grade 10 Good Good What does that word even mean

Is it helping your neighbour with groceries Holding open a door Being kind to someone you don’t like

I think it means more

Is it stopping world hunger Ending poverty as a whole Raising money for children who can’t go to school

I don’t know if I can be that good

Is it telling a lie to spare someone’s feelings Are lies good or bad or does it depend Better to hurt with the truth I guess

But sometimes lies feel right to me

What if a lie is the nice thing to do Does that make lying okay Does that make lies good

How do I tell the good lies compared to the bad

Is good reading the right books Saying the right things
