What Kind of Person Are You


This morning driving to work I listened to an interesting topic on a popular morning show. They were questioning how do you tell if someone is a good person?

Of course, they had all the standard answers: are they kind, how do they spend their free time, ECT; but there was one suggestion that stood out to me. One host said, “You can judge a person by the company they keep.” 

 

Stop and think about it for a minute. 

 

Our friends and family are a reflection of who we are. 

 

As I stopped to process this I thought about the people I spend my time with. I have a whole slew of friends, a loving family, and an amazing boyfriend. Each and every one of these people brings so much joy to my life. I am truly blessed to be living life with them. They are amazing. 

 

I won’t jump to the conclusion and say that I’m amazing. I’ll let you figure that out for yourself. But I will challenge you to take a look at the people you surround yourself with – are they projecting a good image of you? Is that projection who you are or who you desire to be? Take a good look at yourself. Are you the kind of friend that projects the good in others? Are you one of those first rate friends? When people see you, do they see you as a good person?
