What does it mean to be good?
A lot of people might have different ideas of what a good person should look like, sound like and feel like.
Whatever characteristics you use to define a good person are fine as much as the person in question is good. Which is the most important of them all.
I have met a few good people with different characters. Some I characterized them by giving like they can't have not shared. That's love right? Anybody in need will mention these sets of people as the best humans on earth.
I have seen some who's major character is care. That's another dimension of love right?
Giving out time to people who feel lonely has always been their priority.
These sets of people are also characterized as the best as they show up at any given time.
Some are characterised by the ability to guide one's part.
They tell you what to do so you don't fall into danger or destruction. We end up seeing these people as also the best people.
What I observed here is that the people we call good people are the ones who help us with what they have in the time of our needs.
Someone who gives might probably have it in abundance, someone who is always there might not really have something to do and someone who guides might be doing it for a reason that is self beneficial.

I see a good person in humility and lack.
Humility as in coming down to the level of anyone just to make them feel comfortable is being good.
People who attain height finds it very difficult to come down from their throne to associate with people on the ground, I give respect and tag people to be good when they are able to identify low life and still role with them bringing in such a humble heart gives it all at that point every other element that would qualify you to being a good person will come into play as the care will be there, the guide will be there, the gifts will be there and time also making you fully available whenever they needs you.
Anyone who gives you what they don't have is a good person. We always say we can only give what we have but trust me there are people who can go the extra mile to make sure you are ok.
A high profiled personnel might not have all the time but then he creates some for you when you meet him and he literally tells you I don't have time but yet he accords some portion to you that's a good person.
My boss at work is one of these rare gems I am talking about, his level of humility defines it all. Not for anything but the hand shake and how he addresses us as his brothers and sisters is heart warming, I always imagine how a man of this status brings himself this low even up to the extent of going round offices to say hi to his workers, jeez!! asking some soft questions like hope there is no problem and don't forget to ask me if you need anything. What else will you use to characterise a good person?
