Which is better?
admin October 16th, 2007
These are some things I sometimes think about without ever really finding a great answer. Any thoughts?
Buy an expensive eco-friendly shirt for your kid, or buy a cheap one and give the extra money to a homeless guy?
Give money to your church to help fix the broken steeple, or send that money to a charity for hungry children?
Spend billions of dollars to fund cancer research in your country, or a few million to save thousands of starving and displaced refugees in another country?
Try become completely eco-friendly in your own house, or use some of that time money and energy to help convince other people to adopt new practices in theirs?
Give a homeless man $100, or give $100 to United Way (or other trusted organization).
Protest the right to speech, or protest the right not to be degraded by speech?
Devote your life to a career you enjoy, or devote your life to a career that will make a huge impact?
Strive for excellence, or strive for balance? Happiness during this life, or legacy after?
Eat an unwashed apple, or a bag of potato chips?
