too good?

Rachel Brown
Jul 9, 2021

Within moments of accepting something we think is so good we can often begin questioning it starting with “wait, is this too good to be true?”

I’ve asked myself this question often enough to finally discover my answer, which is no. Rather, what I’m coming to understand is that things are only as good as they are true. If we’re putting honest effort into keeping things true and whole and real then the matter at hand will reflect that — therefore remaining good and complete and genuine.

Good things take effort, constant effort that is. Effort in sewing the right seeds, and not the ones of destruction. Can we honestly say things are too good to be true before we’ve done the due diligence?
