Just begins with letting go of being a good person, you don't have to thing all the time how do you act around the people , you have to be spontaneous good people always get a mistake , all people get mistakes so we have to be the better vision of yourself. A good person is that person who : They think of others , they are kind ,they are patience, they compliment others when deserved, they are polite. Is not bad with other people they are themselves.
don't think about it, be a good person
I think that being a good person should mean that what you are doing is ethical and helps other people and yourself.
you have to be yourself.
All people tend to virtualize that being a good person is to make it seem like you are a good and a worthy person, this is good and all but what if i told you that the urge of pretending to be good is what is sopping you from being a good person.
