Who are you? 

This question has been bugging me for a while.

Am I a good person? Am I a bad person? How am I supposed to tell? What criteria should be used in this situation? Who defines what's right and what's wrong? Who creates the exceptions for each rule?

If I put myself above others once in my life, does that make me selfish and mean? If I don't put myself first, does that make me a saint? Or just an idiot? How exactly do these things work? It's all subjective, it depends on the situation, on the person, on the circumstances, on how we see things.

Some persons would say that you should do what makes you happy, have your best interests at heart until the point that this aspects affect the others around you. But when, if ever, a decision you make doesn't have repercussions on other people? By choosing to take a job position, a thing that supposedly only afects you, you actually keep another person from getting that job. Every action has its own consequences and we pretty much have to live with that.

I'm a person that likes to please everybody. I don't like to fight with others and i can't stand not talking to some persons or those persons not talking to me because of some fight. Don't get me wrong, I'm not that type of person that tells people only what they want to hear, I speak my mind, but I do it nicely. I can't be blunt and just not care about other people feelings. So what does that make me? I'd like to think that that makes me a good person, not a bad one.

But thinking and acting like that doesn't actually make me the biggest hypocrite ever?
