    I start every day with the intent to be good. But then I walk out the door and it all falls to pieces. So sadly I fail..

    Peace

    I dont know either. i really do try and i think i have the best of intentions always, its just sometimes it all goes horribly wrong. such is life.

    but yea, in general i think so. i would never deliberatly hurt anyone or anything.

    Definition of good and bad may differ per person, but from my perception I seriously think I'm a good person :)

    I wanted to vote for these two options:

    - Good and bad do not exist
    - I try my best but often fail

    But I'll settle with the first. It's all in the mind!

    There's a great deal of subjectivity when it comes to good and bad and although I have a framework of morality which I try to apply universally, I do not believe universal morals can exist. What is considered good in one given culture and at a specific time (burning witches in the European Middle Ages for example) cannot necessarily be considered to be diachronically and synchronically good. Within my own personal framework of morality: equality, socialism, environmentalism, peace, charity, kindness, I consider myself largely to be a good person....

    I disagree, partially. I'd say that good and bad do exist, but they exist only in the mind, as morality is a matter of holding conceptual intentional thoughts.

    I make conscious efforts to be a good person and treat people with respect and kindness, but I have my demons which I battle with as well. I'd probably give myself a 5.5 out of 10.

    i think so...on the whole anyway!!

    caring for ppl/nurturing comes very naturally to me. until recently i had always worked in the social work field...& have done lots of volunatry work too. i find it helps you as much as those you are helping...as it takes your mind off your own problems...but i am very aware that i can also be a total cow!! i mean don't get me wrong i am not someone who sets out to hurt or upset ppl but when someone pisses me off thats it i can be very very caustic...i have made grown men weep...not big not clever i know...:D

    i am a total drama queen in fact i should have used that for my id but i joined after reading the astrology forum first hence my name. i am learning though or rather trying...not to be so reactive & emotional...my childhood was quite abusive & instead of recoiling & being quiet about it...i was/am very confrontational myself & outspoken. i didn't want my mother to 'break me'...my spirit. but thats no excuse for my behaviour now...i'm 41 FFS!! a 41 yr old drama queen??? please!! thankfully i did break the abusive cycle my kids are my all...they're for life...unlike my husbands ;) & when it comes to them i am very passionate & loving & fiercely protective...a total lioness.

    It depends who I'm dealing with. If the person is not worth my being nice, then fine... I won't be nice...
    Otherwise, I'm told I'm a good person... but only to those who deserve it, really.

    I think the things I believe and the values I hold are good...

    Though I probably fail to uphold them with the same regularity that I try to.

    I guess you could say I'm lost, but I know where it is I'm trying to get to ;)

    I always try to be good, and will always help people when I can, but most people in this world aren't good and they just take advantage of you....:(
