Average Person

Listening to a person talking about our tax code and laws, he said that the "average person" would take thus and so many hours to fill out their forms.  I got the sense that average means someone who is not rich.  The rich have some one else do it, I guess.  In sports, education, looks, there is the exceptionally gifted and then there is everyone else, the "average."  Sad.  What if the "average" is also a loving parent, a selfless and kind person, a community helper or even a prayerful person?  These are not average people.  The rich, the gifted athlete, the hollywood star, the genius educated, may also be mean, nasty, self-imploded, and uncaring people.  When we label someone as average, we downgrade their gifts.  No one is average for God.
