Seeing The Good In Others

[theonelight]

I have lived most of my adult life resenting where I lived, resenting where I worked, resenting this, that or the other, or otherwise being dissatisfied and complaining about how terrible I thought the world was.

I have really undergone a significant transformation in my life. My transformation is far from complete. But I am now in the process of a major transition where now I can see the good in people.

I feel so happy and blessed now, I have several times been moved to tears by a simple greeting from a stranger, or the sudden realization of how kind and thoughtful people are all around me.

And yes, it does sadden me that I could not see this in them before.

I feel so blessed and amazed. I didn't know what I was missing out on until very recently.

Alright i'll bite, what transformation did you go through to become moved by people simply saying "hello"?

I'm happy for you, sounds like the Holy Spirit is working in your life

I kinda get it. For most of upper school I thought most others were generally bullies and supporters of bullies (I was in a non-popular group). But I moved schools (at 17 for 6th form) and found that most people are quite nice... the same until this day.

Niceness is often a mask that hides some pretty ugly flaws.

I see good in people too. I dont like it when people say my world is evil, me and my friends try to help each other.

I experienced exactly this myself! I hope it stays with you forever!

I believe that people in general are good. It's just a few people spoiling the "whole bunch".

As an aside, the original middle english definition of nice in the medieval era was stupid.

The American Psychiatric Association labels them as sociopaths.

Personally i think psychiatry is a load of bunk and they're just plain boring evil.

They can be easily identified by their love of power.

Why do you think it is bunk?

The question is why they are evil.

first of all why do you think they are evil and it is bunk? second boring evil? is evil divided into categories based on how much fun it is?
