Nice Is Different Than Good

Good is the verity.

Or perhaps, to phrase it as the ancient philosophers did, "the good."

Many today cannot differentiate "nice" from "good."

Because of this, still others focus on being nice to hide the reality that they are not good. It's an easier task, less effort, less character demanded. It's facile but quite pleasant. When they are very bad, they make a point to be especially nice, confident no one will notice the stark difference.

Eventually, they cease to notice the flat plain of "nice" lacks the deep dimensionality of "good."
