Good, Better, Best

It has always kind of fascinated me whenever I have gone to Sears that they label some products as "Good", "Better" and "Best".  I figured maybe someone there in the corporate hierarchy thought maybe us peons couldn't figure out what we wanted to buy when we went shopping at the local Sears.  On the other hand, perhaps I should be gratuitous and accept that perhaps they are just trying to make decisions easier for the buying public.

The good-better-best thing applies to much more in life than buying stuff at Sears.  It's all about choices...the choices we make as we sort out, for example, a good way to resolve a conflict, a better way to do the same, or the best way to really successfully resolve that conflict.  The choice we make in that particular example, good, better, or best, will speak volumes of our character.  Ultimately the trilogy of good-better-best is intertwined in all of our decisions and choices.  At times, we allow ourselves to fall prey to a knee-jerk reaction, which will negatively impact what in that trilogy our choice or decision will result in.

I saw something a while back that reminded me of the good-better-best thing.  It was about faith, something which most of us will struggle with at times. 

Fairly poignant isn't it?
