The Good, The Bad, and Those In Between

Right, so. A quick introduction.1

I'm Nim Nim, I'm reviving this old account. I'd just like to say that this post will be cross-posted to my LiveJournal. If you would like access to the journal, please message me, and I'll see what I can do. The difference in post will be the more personal things will belong to LJ strictly.

On to my post.4

 5

I have come to find that there are three types of people out there; the genuinely good, the not-so-good, and the people who just need someone there who happen to be in the middle. 6

 7

I have friends and aquaintences of each sort. The geniunely good people, are those who are there for others, and think and act selflessly on the behalf of friends, family, and strangers. They are martyrs, and people who aren't afraid to be themselves, even if called out by others. They hold thier heads high, and are ever-optimistic about the worst situations. When they're upset, they sure as hell won't let anyone know. They're the people who suffer silently, and never once complain.8

 9

We then move on to the not-so-good. The people who don't give a damn about others, the ones who never have anything good to say, and never think positively. They're the people who you know you can't go to ever, because they just won't care.10

 11

And now the people in between. The people who have their good days, and their bad days. Nearly every person on the planet falls into this category. They're the people who are usually misunderstood, the people who just try to do their best for others, but at the same time, try to do the best for themselves. They're the people you know you can go to, to make you smile. They're also the kind of person that would turn their back on you if something terrible happened. Over all, they're normally good people, but they have their moments that can make them seem like the scum of the Earth.12

 13

Where do you fall, in all honesty?14

 15

I know, for a fact, that I'm a person in between, teetering on both edges. I could either fall forward, and turn into a genuinely good person, or I could fall back, into the not-so-good person category. I'm selfless toward my friends, but I can be selfish. I havea mean streak that could tear you apart, and yet I'm extremely compassionate. I love to help people, but sometimes I get sick of hearing the same old thing from the same old person. I know how to make it hurt, and I know how to make it better. I'll cry for you, but I might just laugh at you, too. I try to be inclusive of others, but I exclude myself from everyone else. I'll never tell your secrets, but I might threaten that I will. I could say I hated you and I could mean it, or I could say I loved you, and I could also mean it. I could keep your heart completely safe, or I could break it. 16

I challenge you to tell me who you are, and why.

    A challenge?

    By the way, you described people perfectly.


    So, if I had to choose, I'd say I'm in the in-between. Good days, bad days we all have them, even if sometimes the bad days equal more than they ought to. I'm no comedian but I think (I hope) that I've made someone smile at least once~ even if it was only for an instant. I just want people to be happy, and I'll do a lot to please people. I'm not one to hold grudges but if I trusted someone and they betray my trust... then it's a different story. I don't like to hurt people-- If I do it's only to defend/protect someone I love. I've been told I'm too nice for my own good, but I've also been called a bitch. Maybe it just depends on who you are and what you mean to me. You know that I love some people with my whole life...and there's others I could really care less about but I don't because I wouldn't want to hurt their feelings.

    And despite all that, in all honesty I think I'm the most horrible person someone can meet.

    Very interesting indeed

    I do my best to treat everyone the same first I try love if that doesnt work I try understanding if that doesnt work I try to help if that doesnt work I leave a door open should they change their mind

    I am very careing and have a huge heart for the care and welbeing for children .I am there for anyone who needs someone to talk to no matter what the subject aI will do the best I can to understand and help if possible

    I am an artist and a poet my sister asked me one time where do you get all those poems from and how can you go from one loving poem right off the edge into the abyss of freight .I told her that every mind has good and evil often people shut off the evil side fearing to let others know it is there refusing to think they could ever do the things their mind reveals to only the person within. Yet I feel the more honest you are with yourself the more you cna understand your body and the feelings you find yourself trying to deal with
