althoug it sounds more like a philosophical question, i desperately want to know your ideas. i think it is very complicated. we can not just say kind, nice, selfishless. big words can never rightly given to anyone, because anyone has his good sides and bad sides, and man changes from good or bad, from bad to good. man can be very good to his family but bad to others... so what is your opinion? would you please share?

You know, this is a totally relative question. A person may seem good to you but not to others. The very definition of "good" is undergoing radical changes. Selflessness is a thing of the past; it is extinct. If you try to measure goodness in terms of that, the whole world will turn out to be bad. Everyone nowadys wears a sociable mask which prevents us from knowing what he/she is actually thinking. People shower praises upon a particular person when they are before him and criticize him behind his back. This world is becoming a jungle of masked personalities. I personally won't term anybody bad but neither can I label them as good.
