i've noticed this a lot. especially amongst us survivors...

being able to see all the good and positive things in others when they are having a hard time, but have a hard time seeing the good and positive in myself...

i've talked to many of the guys here who have told me that they were such rotten boys, dirty boys, whore-ish. i also hear that they are bad men too and that they are dirty, perverted and so on...

yet, when i hear this from them all i can see is their positive traits. their goodness inside them. their caring and compassionate souls. i tell them how they have all this in them but they have a hard time seeing it..

then down the road i go through some tough times and then it turns to me not being able to see all those good things in me...

interesting how i can see all these good, positive things in others but i have a hard time seeing them in me.
