An Internal Phenomenon

“The reward for doing right is mostly an internal phenomenon: Self-respect, dignity (self-worth), integrity, and self-esteem.”

Dr. Laura Schlessinger

Reflection: This is true. I would say that when you do good you feel great but when you do bad you feel terrible. For example sometimes people get paid for doing wrong like stealing or killing someone. Once they do that wrong and receive money or materialistic things, they can’t help but to feel terrible inside sort of like the guilt is eating them away. When a person does something good they already feel great so there is no need for receiving a prize of any sort. If they do receive a prize they most likely won’t want it because they don’t need it when they already feel good.
