Some times, yes. then again , sometimes, no. Some peoplr pretend they are your friends and they are really using you for their own selfish gains. But then there are those who good honest friends who you put your life on the line for, Those are hard to find.

Put it this way assume that it does not exist and try to live your life in a positive way so that your actions in this life live forever by benefitting those around you. That way if you come back you can see all the good work you've done!

Yes, because of Karma.  Whenever you do good, it will come back to you threefold.  The same holds true for when you do bad.  This follows you from life to life.  So it is always in your best interest to do good.  One does not cancel out the other.  So if you do someone bad, and then do something good, they will not cancel each other out.  It will prolong how many times you will need to return.

YES!!!  I am one of them and most of my friends are!  I think nice people can be hard to find but if you look and you're nice too, you can find them!  : )  Being nice is the only way to be...I have bad days but still try to be nice!

Thinking of ones self will take you very far in life in some areas. It maybe a lonely ride to the top but it is a surefire way to get there. If you count out how much doing the right things for others has cost you or people around it almost makes it seem stupid to consider anyone other then yourself but if you can remember how you felt in lending a hand or sacrificing something it really does mean something. To each there own and however it helps you sleep at night being selfish or generous are up to the indivual and there needs at the time.

Yes. This something I do almost every day and how I've made some of my closest friends. I believe that every person has something good and beautiful inside of them. We all deserve love and attention. When someone is so low that they feel they don't want to live, that is when I feel closest to a stranger. I know how they feel because I've been there and I never have problems crying with them or helping them out. I'm always making friends because I wear my heart on my sleeve and offer anything I can to everyone. I love people and because I am so loving, they love me back. :^)

OF COURSE, it becomes a part of your everyday life.. especially those who are fallen in debts and have no one to relieve them from their burden..\ni've also found out that the more you give the more you get in return.. in the begining i thought that it was just talk to make people give more but it actually works.. its not only the money you get in return but the whole feeling of peace you feel inside i cant explain it but its beautiful.

It can, if you use it in a way that will benefit others in a much more beneficial way than yourself...as I have experienced now greater joy than bringing a smile to someone's face.

That is great!  It does feel so amazing to be kind to others, doesn't it?  Just be sure that you are doing it for the right reasons.  If you are only doing it so you can look good to others, then that is the wrong reason.  God bless you for your selflessness.

Yes. I Love my life. When God saved me, He made me complete. I do not hate others or hold a grudge anymore. When God gets a hold of you, He does it right.

There are some close seconds, but number one is being good.\n\nI don't know why. I thought it was because of all the wonderful things I could ultimately have, like being close to God, becoming a huge radiant being, having love and connection with all beings, and similar ambitions.\n\nBut, I realized the other day that if I had to deliberately wrong someone to better my own situation worldly or spiritually, I wouldn't do it, regardless of God's will. I fear that it's pride, and I wonder if it's something better than my selfish mind can grasp. I don't know.\n\nWould you tell us what your most important is?

I have separated myself from jealous people who added negativity to my life.  I wish them well and nothing but the happiness they seek, but am not willing to offer my friendship to them.\n\nI have, what appears to be a great life to some.  I do have great blessings for which I'm eternally grateful for.  I've also had many hardships at young ages, that most people, hopefully never have to face.  That is Life!  \n\nHowever, I don't share much of myself with others.  I've found most people really don't care, they are consumed with their selves.  I've distanced myself from people who only talk about themselves.  If you're a good listener (and can't help but listen) it becomes overwhelming to be around these types.\n\nEveryone has issues.  My life is enough for me.  I don't want anyone Else's.  The older I get, the more I only want true friends/family in my life.

That depends on what your inner being is. It is someone bad, then no. The good of the many must come before the good of the one.

I think that I am very nice because I always helped others but turns out people think that I have ego and I show a lot of emotions... If you are a nice person ... wait and I believe that you will get nice friends too... it takes patience but is while worth... I am 22 and I have had only 2 friends in my life and they love me even when I am 7 oceans away from them... i still get mail and calls and I can still trust them with my secrets... If you are looking for any kind of friend then I don't give you any suggestions but if you want trustworthy friends .. then Trust God

I believe so.  I've had some dark times, like everyone, but I try to think of others' needs instead of just my own.  I give everyone the same chances and try not to hurt anyone with my actions.\n\nAnd since it all comes from within me instead of having a thin "coating" of goodness applied weekly, I think it's more a part of who I am instead of who I'm trying to become.
