I know that there are probably a 100 different answers to this questiong.. But..
If I hate myself, because I don't think I am a "good person".. then, I need to figure out is WTH is a "good person?"

A good person is anyone besides me. Therefore, you are a good person.
I define a good person as someone who feels for other people and has a caring, thoughtful personality. |

Maybe a better question is... what would you have to do to be a "good person"? If you met someone just like you are now...same history...same life situations...would they be a good person?

I think a good person is all relative. You may be a good person and not even realize it. Sometimes we are too hard on ourselves and we don't see what others see. Good people are all over the place in my opinion and is just someone who doesn't willingly harm anyone else

IMO, it is a matter of either accepting yourself as you are or deciding to change the things you hate. For me, it's been a bit of both so far.

maybe your definition that you have now is incorrect......You hate something that was created? You? Are you not full of wonder....the way your heart beats, the way you heal from a wound, the way your body regulates your temp.,the way you breath, the emotions you feel, the abilty to touch, to love, to walk? Are you sure?

In my opinion, the people who usually worry about not being good people are not the ones who should be worrying about it.

A good person reduces, reuses, and recycles.

A good person lives his or her life with respect for her/himself, others, and the environment.
A good person takes on responsibility and follows through on his or her commitments. A good person works if they are able and supports themselves and their families. |
