Depends who you ask.
Some people would claim that I'm the best person they have ever met in their life.
Some people would claim that I'm the biggest bastard in the existence.
This is also a reflection of who they are, because in the end I treat people the way they treat me.
Ditto.
I admire that, I have never really been able to pull off the bastard but I've been an asshole to protect myself a few times in my life.
I treat people the way they treat me.
I don't do that. When people treat me well, I try to treat them well. When people treat me badly, I let the bad karma stop with me, and treat them with politeness. You might say I'm where bad karma goes to die. You know how pain and anger get passed from one person to another person to another person? I don't pass them on.
This, by the way, is what Jesus was talking about when he spoke about turning the other cheek. When you return good for evil, you stop bad karma dead in its tracks.
I don't believed in turning the other cheek.
I don't take shit from anyone, whoever thinks they can treat me like crap will get a very rude awakening.
Maybe I'm not as good of a person as I think I am, but I wasn't born unkind.
