The great, dominant, all controlling fact of this life is the innate bias of the human spirit, not towards evil, as theologists tell us, but towards good. But for that bias, man would never have been man; he would only have been one more species of wild man ranging a savage, uncultivated globe, the reeking battleground of sheer instinct and appetite.
~William Archer
This is something I’ve felt for a long time, since I was a little girl. Human beings are inherently good creatures. I have chosen to focus on the good in me and let that let shine. I have bad qualities like everyone else but I just don’t believe I was born a bad person doomed to evil and wrong-doing. I really resent this was ever put into my head, but I am trying to get past that resentment. Let it go, because it will only hold me back from living a good life.
