Are you, or are you not
 
...a good person? What to YOU defines being a good person?
How can you support your case?
Side note-I just finished watching Denzel Washington in John Q.
That is the reason for this question.

What to YOU defines being a good person?
Treating OTHERS with respect and being selfless, regardless if you get that in return or not. Being humble and trustworthy. According to my standards, I need improvement, especially when I'm around those whom I dislike.

Above all else sweet Dionysus, you are an honest human being.
Ironic on the surface, but true in the deepest sense. (Know what I mean?)

Well, I try.

I like to think that I am. People I don't like probably don't think I am. I don't always hide it real well.

I used to think I was .. . I am too flawed to be a good person. But I try to mostly act like a good person.

I'm a good person in the sense that I am extremely loyal and will do absolutely anything for someone I care about. I am also willing to give new people the benefit of the doubt. I have never "gone after" a person unless he or she first messed with me or one of my friends.

On the flip side, though, if a person hurts me or someone I care about I could (according to an acquaintance) "see them dying by the side of the road, step over them and continue on my way". If someone crosses me, I tend not to forget it and I'm not very good at setting boundaries on my behavior if I'm pi$$ed off.

So, I guess, at least I'm *half* good! :) And do I get points for at least being aware that I'm not always an angel?

I am a good person. I am nice and sweet, too.

IF you hurt me, then you are permanently deleted from my life. I don't get revenge, I just weed out people who hurt me. I have done that so many times.

I agree!

I try to be a good person as much as my understanding of what makes a good person allows.

I usually have good intentions. But dotn feel like I am a good person usually. I strive to live my ritual, but most often, fall far short.

I think we mostly all fall short of our own expectations sweetie, that's life though. Nobody is perfect, but as long as you try to be a good person and make a conscious effort to be a good person then that's all that matters! ;)
