No, I do not think I am a good person. The way people answer this question depends completely on there perspective. Is good measured by humans, or some force beyond human? Is good just what actions we have chosen or is good what our inner inclinations are as well? Is good perfection or is the definition much more luke warm than that? I choose not to judge myself by secular standards (by which almost everyone thinks they are good) and instead call good -complete and whole moral perfection, and in that case I am very bad. I also don't judge it by the actions I have done, but by the inner person that I am. At times I am very jealous, bitter, cowardly, a follower, self indulgent, and above all prideful. Most people don't exhibit these qualities outwardly for they would be almost undoubtedly be hated, but inwardly if we were to all mark our true inner self and our motiviations and insecurities and pride and judgemental nature, and need to justify ourselves as right by comparing ourselves to others and so on and so on I don't know how many people could call themselves good. Maybe some can, I wish I could, but it simply isn't true with me.

Honestly? It is a daily struggle. One day I feel humble but the next I will have an ego feeling. It is always back n forth. Reminds me of a household where one person is in a poor mood than the next like a cycle that keeps going around. Maybe it's what keeps us going.

Dear Friend,
In answer to your question, Absolutely, not!"
Why? Mark 10:18 says it all, "And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God."
Sincerely in Christ Jesus,

*laughing* I know myself.....the bible says there is none good, that the heart is desperately wicked. That is why the bible is the truth. I know that this is the truth about me.
