Do you think it's wrong to only ever look at the bad in people? I always seem to see the good in people. I was trying to explain to my friend that I think people should not just look at the bad in people, but also the good (we were talking about this upcoming presidential election). She thinks i'm stupid for even thinking it, and that you have to see the bad in people. Do you agree with me or do you agree with my friend? Am I wrong to be offended by this? Let me know what you think. I mean if you've ever done something bad in your life do you want everyone to focus on only that? Or do you want them to see the good things you've done too? (link)

Personally, I think its an awesome qualtiy in a person to be able to see the good. So if you do see the good then kudos to you. I generally look for the good in people but I am very negative about myself. Its unhealthy because I am limiting myself by looking at the bad in me. So if you look for the bad you will find it, its theres, in fact its easier to see the bad then the good. Its okay to acknowledge somethings that are bad so that you can learn from it, but if all you do is see the bad, then somethings wrong. What I notice is everyone says the world is the bad place, but thats b/c we read about the bad, if we actually tried to be good, and do good, then the world will be so much better off. Look at it this way, our life on earth is so temporary and short, so don't waste time with the bad, b/c in the end itll still be there. But if you can do something somewhere, and leave it better off then it was when you found it, then you have done your purpose, you have done good, for those around to see and follow. Make a difference, and yes you are right on track by seeing the good, keep it up!!

Thanks. I'm the same way sometimes. I only see the bad in myself, but the good in everyone else. Even though I know I shouldnt just look at the bad in myself, but also the good. If that makes any sense.
