People tend to judge another persons behavior as good or bad. I'm sure if you go to a local prison that most in there would claim to be good. If a person views themselves as a shitty person then what a horrible way to live.
I live my life where I seek to not violate my conscience. I care for the poor and those hurting and in need. I have held the hands of old people in Nursing homes that I did not even know because they were sad that nobody comes to visit them. I always try to put myself in another persons shoes. How would I expect to be treated?
I try to respect whatever life choices people make even if I disapprove. If a lady struggling financially desires to make ends meet by selling her body for sex then I would not allow myself who personally does not approve of such a lifestyle to talk down to her or even call her a whore, slut, or a ho. I do not believe in talking behind anyone's back. I will never accept anyone's criticism of another person I have not met. I tend to believe everyone is good until they give me a reason to believe otherwise.
I just have no time for toxic people. I despise pedophiles. I despise wife beaters. I despise those who scam others. I despise those who love to hurl insults at others when nothing warranted it. I despise murderers. I despise the religion that claims 9/11 and hurricanes were brought by God to punish people for taking prayer out of schools and legalizing gay marriage. I despise racists.
By me living and not violating my conscience is how I live feeling good about myself. I could give two shits what everyone else thinks as I do not need their approval. I live in a way that I believe counts and contributes to the overall good of humanity.

The common people see me as good, but not authority figures such as medical industries, politicians and the police. I have spoken out against corruption and it has gotten me into much trouble with them. I have no respect for people who consume our taxes for a living and then shit on our faces. I speak out against them. It's dangerous to do that but I took my chances and ended up in jail for it. So am I a good person? Yes I think so. I left a mark on corruption and they know a little more they need to correct themselves. Question is will they? I doubt it. Least I tried.
I consider myself a human being. Capable of great and terrible things, both equally likely.
I know I am a villain in some people's eyes. Because they can't handle the way I choose to live my life.
I know I am a good person in most people's eyes. Because I choose to act in ways that cultivate that image.
Ultimately, I do what I can do be a good person, but I don't give a fuck about what other people think.
Neither. I do bad things in order that they become good later. I wouldn't consider myself as a bad person.
My definition of bad is different for another humans definition of bad. So there is actually no good or bad.
Murdering would be something people call bad. But could you call an 18 year old girl who was Kidnapped and repeatdly raped, that gotten her to the point of killing her abuser, a bad person? Think.

I'm not the best I could be I kinda run a little wild. And free in ways because I'm single. When I'm with someone I get back to being me and I believe I am a good person ,, no matter what I give of myself I help even when I can't I do it if I see someone struggling I reach a hand I take from myself to give to others I'm a positive person who loves love and I share or try to teach with in the way I do things I have friends or people I don't even know so I hope I am and if I'm not there is always a wake up call
I do consider myself a good person. I try to help others in any way I can when the time comes. Some of my friends say that I am too kind. But thing is that you can never be too kind because there are so many people in this world who yearn for that of feeling. Kindness is one extension of love. Love is the world's greatest gift and weapon. To make this place better, we have to give love to one another.
No i do not unfortunately. I can be selfish and i get weirded out when people genuinely care. Im not mean, im actually p sweet but i just can't seem to care even tho i act like i do to be likable and the only reason i like to make people laugh is to feed my own ego.
I do. That's not to say i don't have my faults. My biggest problem i feel is i live in an ever increasingly disconnected, world with ever increasingly backward ideals. So i find myself almost always at odds with what the world says i should be. So on the surface i play just enough of society's game.
I consider myself a good person but not a very likable person. No matter if you volunteer within your community, work at a recycling center at your school, assist members @ a big box store, or in university the likelihood of being liked by others is slim.
I would say I am nice in how I treat people but I have pride issues and I can also neglect people if they treat me bad. Like sometimes I ignore my parents cause I am sick of them being verbally aggressive. I also seem to have a lower pain tolerance than others meaning I don't do intense work outs in the gym.
Good, maybe not. Bad, maybe not either. I just consider myself a "No hassle/no nonsense" person. I can fire back at people who try to mess with me. I can verbally and physically defend myself or even strike back if need be but I always prefer the quiet way out and try to stay away from unnecessary problems.
I am as good as I can afford to be.
I have 'goodness' categories:
- By laws, I'm rather NOT a good person
- as a friend I consider myself to rank very high
- socially: good enough, and harmless
- professionally: stainless
- philosophically/ethically: aiming high - scoring average
- politically, I'm an outlawWe all do, thats how we are able to do all the awful things that we do.
I would offer that I at least make up my own bullshit reasons for why its ok for me to be an awful person rather than being lazy and just saying something like my invisible friend made me do it / said it was ok.I think it is not something to say about myself. I put almost all of ny efforts into self-realisation, concerning my morals and the energy I radiate into the world around me. I'd call it 'right', not good nor bad. Labels have the potential of restricting my being from everything else. Besides, the fluctuation of good and evil is what makes me grow. So even if I were able to define myself as a good person, I wouldn't want to.
Not to sound greedy or selfish or whatever... but i think yes because no one has ever met me, or talked to me, or get to know me, has ever said anything bad about me... and i try hard to make someone smile and make them happy, and try to help them with whatever I've got... although I've been taken granted of a lot, but that won't stop me being ME.
At least being myself makes me happy!Not good enough, I'll love to be better so I try to learn.
I don't think I'm good enough cause I can only mainly compare to asshole. Cause those are the everyday dude and it's very easy to be a good person next to them so when I see someone who is nice I first start wondering if he's not just someone putting a mask on.I can be morally grey a lot of times tbh. I blame a lot of it on my hard upbringing and it's scared me. I never go out of my way to be a bitch, but I never do my best to help others. I care more for myself.
I consider myself a humble person. I try to be a decent, loving person who keeps himself on the straight an narrow. Sometimes I mess up and struggle as we all do. I have my moments, but wouldn't consider myself a "bad person" by any means.
It's not up to me to decide, it's up to the people who are around me.
I do take care of my loved ones and i do help others when i can and if some people are assholes i give them a taste of their own medicine but 10 times stronger.Yes and no. I know i have a good heart and my intentions mean well however i also know that there will always be the potential for bad so to answer your question honestly i would say my answer is : i am neither a good person or bad person; I Am human who has the capacity to be both.
I do. I have good intentions always. Even if my delivery isn’t perfect I always want the best for everyone involved. My flaws are just being materialistic which could be far worse
I try everyday to hopefully be better than the day before. Sometimes I fail miserably, but for the most part I do ok. Point is, most people will say they are, some will just assume they are. Some of actively work to be.
Yes. I'm not perfect, but my heart is in the right place. I think I'm good to others (sometimes too good, and to people who don't deserve it, unfortunately) and make good choices.
Those who know me can make this decision/answer.
Nobody calls oneself "I'm a bad person."
So, what someone else's thoughts about me is more important than my thoughts about myself.
