You May Not Be Wrong

You may not be wrong...but, are you right?

In other words, not being wrong can become a thing all unto itself...and completely miss the ‘what is right’ that needs to be done. 

In other words, a non-negative is not the same thing as a positive.

It seems like claiming that I didn't actually do this or that isn't really enough.

Example—I may not consciously disparage the poor or the needy, but do I actually help them?

Or, I can claim "I don't hate...".  But, the real question is closer to, "Do I love?"

One may not require much, but the other does.
