I think I'm becoming one. It's all TL;DR really, but I have not always been going the right direction. Some of it may be attributable to mental illness, but not all. I did a lot of introspection and I didn't like what I saw.
I'm moving in the right direction now, I think. I don't want to think of myself as a "good person" until I'm closer to where I think that mark actually lies. I don't think of myself as a bad person - most of the time - just not quite there yet.
That's very respectable.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
