Part of getting older is realizing there is, inherently, no such thing as a completely good or bad person.
In fact there's not really any good or bad people.
It's not that cut and dry.
All of us are human beings, and regardless of whether we are succeeding or failing, making mistakes or making huge strides.
We deserve to be here. You are deserving of love, compassion, and support simply because you exist.
No one can deem you worthy of this; therefore, no one can truly take it away. It is only your beliefs that make something true. When we decide to believe something else, our lives change.
It all comes down to choice.
You are not what you've done, or what you will do, or what you're intending to do.
You are what you're doing.
Mind I'm not a moral relativist, at the end of the day there's right and wrong, there's good intentions, and then there's bad paths that you can go on even if you have good intentions.
Good intentions may do as much harm as malevolence if they lack understanding. If good intentions are hinged on ignorance or figments, we remain anyhow responsible for our acts and making amends for damage.
