too good to be true

I wonder how it feels to be a righteous person, good from the heart and pure from the mind. One like myself can only attempt or hope to be a good person but to actually be one is a whole other story. How do they manage them selves, is it something your born with or is it something you grow into after trying or is it the way your raised? Its good to be humble and kind, but how do you manage when/if people start walking all over you. Does that affect their emotion health being? Responsibility is a good characteristic too but how responsible is too responsible? Or being positive, does that mean you take all risks and brush mistakes under the rug.

But honestly, that’s not even the “good person” I was talking about. (Anyone who knows me, knows I can’t stay on topic.) Many people have set up reasons to prove that they are good. Many people keep on struggling between 'goodness' and “badness” in their own assessment. If one finds a particular good quality in some one they'll label them as good or a single flaw they'll label them as bad. Same goes for one's own self worth, a slight sense from the conscious makes one feel that he's not a good person, and a little sense of achievement makes you good. It’s not very smart to look upto people with a certain talent and label them as good. So many people have found standards in actors, athletes, politicians and other celebrities. Being a good athlete or a cool musician like snoop dog doesn't make you a good person.

"I swear by the time, Most surely man is in loss, except those who believe and do good, and enjoin on each other truth, and enjoin on each other patience." (Al Asr 103)
