Today I was talking to a friend about good and bad people.
My friends have always reprimanded me for being the smartass loser who advocates for the ones who have a bad reputation among people or amongst, well everyone. I don't know if I should be saying this, but I'm gonna be brutally blatant - and say that I personally feel like there will always, ALWAYS, be a good side to Voldemort and even to the worst living person on earth. I always think that we should always see the Good side of people no matter how many mistakes they've made.
And it's always giving them chances like this, that make them see their own good. It's opinions like these that gives these people hope. To a lot of people, I might be just blindsided or plain uncouth. it's always when you've crossed a certain line, that people start to say you've lost it. However strange enough there's always this new found joy and love you find in believing in someone, whether good or bad intentions. I've read from a book that I found quite interesting, the fact that love is not an emotion, and it's something you do out of initiation. When there's love there's always hope.
I truly hate it when people label people as a good person, or a bad person. I'd like to think of people as humans with either bad/good intentions, or just good/bad decisions made. I believe the only thing humans want is the good outcomes from things, in their own perception from everything. People make mistakes all the time. So people are still people, in my own opinion there are no such thing as a good or bad person. It's just what they do in their human form that makes a difference, and again it draws down to everyone having the power of trusting their own discretion to their own decisions, and not judge of other people's decisions. It's imperative to discover ones independent sense of self, on views and value system rather than adhering to conventional or authorities norms,and it's fair to say that each person has every right to determine and judge for themselves whether they think whatever they have done is right or not.
It all draws down to making ourselves better, and not other people better and like they always say if you can't change the world then you gotta start with yourself.
My apologies if I came across any tad dogmatic at all. I just personally feel that everyone deserves their own space. And If someone and anyone happen to think that I'm the worst person on earth, which seasonally I'd like to think so with the bad decisions that I tend to make, at least I am aware that I've given someone a chance, and hope that maybe, just maybe, someone else in the world will give me the same amount of trust and believe that I will become a better person some day.
Just maybe.
And if they don't, well I just keep hoping.
