How many really good people do you have in your life? The person that is honest and always disciplined and trying to get the most out of life. Or maybe someone who's just very humble? Do you have someone in your life that would protect you from a group of mean people? Someone who will stand up for you against the rest... no matter how weird you may be? Someone who would cry for you when you are hurt?

I would say that I am lucky to have wonderful people around me. My friends and my family are good people and I am proud of them. When I need a hand, I know they will be there for me. They don't do things that will hurt others. I believe that we are all good in our own ways and sometimes just make mistakes, but at the deepest corner of our heart, we all have our own unique kindness.

I have been blessed with finally having someone like this and it is my boyfriend now of 8 years. He will stand by me no matter what. He is the type of person that cares for me as a person and not what others think.
I did not have someone like this in my life and am ever so grateful.

I conceived of that dough are made of good people - inherited from your parents, and although I was a romantic, I hope, not obsolete. Many times I was well done back in the river, in one way or another. Many times I have waited years to see if the tables are turned for those who do evil, and I saw his back ... I recognize that "suffer" from bovarisme, because I want a world in fairy tales, or knightly novels, in which justice to surface. But it's a utopia, is not it? Most people who succeed in life, do not just Orthodox roads. I say most, although I know that there are fair people who come by their own forces to succeed, but I find few, so few others besides ... always hear about "Life is not right", but besides troubles ... coming upon us, those that do not depend on people, there are those brought by people around us, people whom I should love as ourselves. Life seems unfair, but I remain a good man because I want and can not change me, but suffer the consequences.

Hello! I have only few good friends who would fight for me against all odds and would always be there for me in my worst situatiopn in my life. I have been there and I had found who my REAL friends are. There are "friends" who are just there in times of happiness only and there are people who talks to your back.
I value people much that I rarely forget. It is sad that not most people are friends. So, I stioll keep in touch with my real friends all though we live apart and to tell you, I consider mylot and the good people here my friends. We had constant communication with the friends that I meet here and am glad for having them now.

For me, on my own experience their are only quite few people that I met that is like that. Mostly, those people are my friends which is really close with me. Friends where i could share openly with them. And those kinds of friends that is where i could openly share with are most likely the friends that would really care for me, that it would come to the extent that they would really protect me.

I have a few good people in my life. Some of them might not go to some of the extremes you have mentioned but who knows..maybe they would. I think my b/f would do those things but he has never really been put to the test either. I hope that I have people in my life that would do those things for me...I would do it for them.

Hi Lore.Almost all the people I have in life are like that.They are all good.But then goodness to me doesn't mean being hones and disciplined.In fact everyone has some good and some bad in them.Let me tell you a story here.Once there was a old sage in a village.A man approached him and said that he was a new comer to the village and would like to know how the people of that particular village were as he wanted to settle down there.The sage asked him how the people of the village he was coming from were?The man replied that they were all rouges and liars and thieves.So the sage said that then he will find people of this village too like that.The person left that village and never came back.The sage was approached by another person who too wanted to settle there.He too asked the sage how the people of that village were.The sage asked him how the people of the village he was coming from were.The man replied that they were all very good people - very cooperative and very helpful.Sage said that the people of this village were also the same.
So , its always depends on how a person feels about others , he attracts that sort of people around him.I trust people very easily and have not be cheated by majority and my friends supported me during my darkest ours. In fact when it was the darkest period of my life I was surprised the way I got new friends who were really my strength.I take this opportunity here to thank all my friends.Thanks for this discussion ,Lore.

Ok besides my parents it would be my significant other. He will always have my back no matter what. He will always protect me and keep me safe. Its the same for me I will always have his back. He is my best friend and has been for the past twenty-three years. We trust and love each other through all the good and bad stuff. No matter what though he is there for me like I am for him.

Hi Lore
Well, I think for many around the definition of "Good" has changed and is quite opposite to what you put up. Today, many relations are made and maintained just because one can get favors.
But still there are some people who are really worthy and I think they are called friends. As for good friends, I have only one - my wife who has been with me ever since we fell in love and got married. She has been around whenever I have needed anything - I think I am not that great friend to her as she is to me.

Good friends are those who come uninvited in times of adversity, as opposed to those who'd only show up when they see that they can get something from you. I consider myself blessed with a few very good friends. It doesn't matter if they are few, quality is more important than quantity. I had one who was always there for me. Now that I have moved, nothing has changed between us. We continue to communicate and occasionally visit. Lore2009, may you be blessed with friends who are truly loving, sincere, concerned and helpful, that distance wouldn't even be a hindrance to your friendship!

As there are different traits in people I have been blessed with finding those who are good out from those who pretend to be good. They might have their reasons why they would rather be labelled bad than good. Like in the case of my boss who wants to be labelled as bad so that people will be afraid of her and follow her. Good people are hard to find and it takes certain situations to prove their goodness all the more. Especially when they extend a helping hand where help is needed.

Aouwww...how touching what you posted. There is and the person might be around you already just that the heart did not activate the mind to valueate it? It happen to me one time and many times, that after i told myself, sure God created such people. The mind goes how we bring it to. So i keep telling myself.

Hello Lore2009,
There are lots of good people in my life if i start mentioning it i wont be able to mention it.My parents who always stood by me in my ups & down,my wife who understand me and who cares me,my brothers who are more like my friends,my friends who are always ready to help me out when i am in bad situation.
Moreover i believe that if you are good at heart you will find others also good to you so i also try to help out the persons in my surroundings to gain favors when i am in need.
