That is the reason for this question.
I try to be Fair and Honest as much as I can. everyone that knows me can vouch for me. While There are a few who have abuse my Well-Intentions, It doesn't change me or stop me for being who I am.

Thumbs up

Jamom, while some good answers and a few idiotiots, who will go on and who surepass Stupidity for addressing the points that you brought up!

I think that is called Wheat and Chaff, the Chaff being ignored!

There have been several great responses on here, Garth, FGAB*Spicey, and lifesaver, but how many people realy understand it, this?

I think this is a great response as well.

For myself, I honestly try very hard to be a good person, but then it occurs to me, if I really WAS that "good", why would I have to try??? It should be more natural than something I "attempt" to be.

I've known some really good people. I feel ashamed sometimes because I pale in comparison. It's like a sin of omission...
I feel guilty when people assume I'm a "good person".

"Who knows what lurks in the hearts of men?"

I think part of it is being selfless or perhaps more aware of the feelings and needs of others. I need some work. No, I need a LOT of work.
