Lately, in my life, I have come to a point where I have encountered crappy people. I say "crappy people" because some are only looking out for themselves, and then there are people like me, whom may or may not make up a small amount of the world that wished good on everyone.

Being a good person to people is something that I just do naturally, I don't have to think about it too hard nor do I actually have to put any effort into being this "good" person. But, sometimes I do get tired of being the "good" person because, at times when people can be ugly towards me, I want to stoop down to their level, but me being the "good" person I am, I don't. Instead, I let all conflict slide, and I may be incredibly pissed, but I will never say it aloud.

Looking back on the bad situations I have realized being the good person will always out way the bad. Me changing who I am because someone else's character will never get me far in life. Although, I have self–doubts when things go wrong and I ask myself "why am I so nice to people?" or "why do I give people my time that don't deserve it?" Those questions can be answered simply because I am just a "good" person. It is not in my nature to be ugly to people.

If you need help, someone to talk to, or someone to just be there in general, I will always be that person regardless if I am getting anything out of it. I believe we live in a world today many people who do volunteer to lend a helping hand, always looks for something in return. I was never raised to be that person. So, yes being a good person does have its down–faults because you are always willing to help others regardless what their true intentions are. This can be a hard challenge to face alone, but at least I know my character will never change. I would rather continue to be a good person, than to live a life full of ugliness.
