Sins of Omission

I was mulling over the issue of "Sins of Omission" the other day. Let's define it as being able to do a right or good thing and then not doing it. I see sins of omission daily and wonder what drives people in general to ignore things. I hear about sins of omission in senior care on a continual basis. It is often not that they got mistreated but they weren't particularly helped with a problem or condition. My thinking must have gone deep in me and caused me to act. It was a bad snow storm here and I was a parent volunteer at a kids musical practice. I went out to clean snow off my car and get it started. I looked at the other cars in the back lot behind the theater and decided on the spur of the moment to clean everyone's windows off for them. Why did I do this? I was already snow covered, had a long snow brush in hand, why not. It would have been a sin of omission for me not to.
