I’m good

The bold heading above is not a statement of my virtue, but an oldie’s criticism of trends in language. What was wrong with I’m well? Wellness certainly indicates fine physical and mental health, whereas goodness suggests a scorecard with top marks awarded for some random attribute.

So while you’re feeling good about yourself you might want to overuse he word more. Perhaps you are more happy, more good or even more better than back in the day.
