In some of my earlier posts, I mentioned refined oratory being rare among people and good listening ability being even rarer. In the same vein, I note that people in general lack the sense of appreciating the good. Appreciating a good piece of art or music needs some training, and for a piece of literature good education, but people even appreciating, in general, normal things, happening, and each other's conduct in day-to-day affairs is rare. Appreciating good is a utilitarian act of furthering the good life for our use only. It is discerningly pointing to virtuous elements and effects of one's demeanour and doings or simply gesturing to goodness anyway. By the very effortless acts of appreciating good, we can facilitate social advancement. Instead of that, we generally indulge only in sycophancy or mutual ego messaging. This is how we partake in social decay.
