Kelli Jae BaeliSome people have goodness and merit buried deep inside and we glimpse it and see its value but ultimately it's covered by so much dirt that it's a 24/7 exercise in archaeology.
About This Quote
A person who is truly good and has merit is like a buried treasure. There is dirt on top of the treasure, but underneath it is really good stuff. A person's goodness and merit lie beneath a lot of other things that they do. The choice to be good or bad is a choice that the one who tries to hide their goodness must make. This quote is saying that we can all show our goodness and merit, but we have to decide to try to hide it from the world if we don't want people to see it.
