Success Happy

How do I know if I am a good person who deserves happiness or a scum of earth who deserves horrible miseries?

I am ambivalent when I think about this but I am inclided towards the latter bcuz of how I view myself deep down, but I also think I should get some happiness. But every time I think of happiness, I feel I can never have it because I just don't deserve the good things and happiness. Is it because I am a scum? What is the truth and how do I for sure about myself ?

1. your division of humanity into "good persons" and "scum of earth" is wrong.
2. We all have our corps in the closet. I mean I believe most of us have something, unresolved, undigested and not properly understood yet, and this is what we might feel in us........... Whatever, I deep in my heart feel that you deserve happiness and that you have a lot of good in your heart and valuable strengths in your soul. Focus on them and develop these aspects more and more, then you will forget in time about your mishaps. -:) All the best to you!!!
3. No one deserves horrible miseries. Life is a difficult & miserable road as it is. All that we can do is challenge ourselves to be happy & share that happiness with others. It is the ebb & flow of life that creates both joy & sorrow. We must put those horrible pains aside & search for the good in ourselves & those around us. Humanity is inherently evil. Inside of us all lies the capability to do both good & bad. It is much like the concept of yin & yang... there is enough bad energy inside of us & in the world around us, that we do not need to create any for ourselves. Believe that you are good. You are a good enough person to question your positive contributions to this world(& this makes you a better person than many others). There will be much misery in your life. It doesn't matter how good of a person you are. We all experience some variety of suffering during our lifetime. All that matters is that we make the best of what we are given & give as much joy as we can to others.
4. because there is no such thing as right or wrong. you are not always a wrong person you have done some right and you are not always a right person - you have done some wrong. and even in those wrongs were some rights and in the rights came out of them some wrongs....lol yikes lol.... for example. the tao ying yang symbol symbolizes this - helping an immigrant across the border- society definitely deems this as wrong but there was a virtue is this..the helping. that was love for another human being. but they went across societal ways so it was wrong and it WAS wrong but it was right :) ao to judge yourself so black and white...isnt fair to you. everyone and i mean EVERYONE derserves love..which is happiness...which is peace :) P E A C E
5. Make the choice yourself. be a good person who helps others and makes them smile. If you act like scum you will be treated as scum.
6. how you see yourself is very important, so if you don't like how you see yourself, which it seems that you don't, then change it, somehow, in some way.
7. Everyone wants to be happy, so why not?
8. No one deserves horrible miseries. it is often good people who endure horrible miseries that get the conception that they are bad. Just because bad things happen to you doesn't mean you deserve them. this works in reverse. Maybe you are a truly atrocious person but i dont know you or your actions. So if you think you are an ill on society then change that. Volunteer your time to help others. Your obviously blessed in some way you have a computer to type on so give back to your community in some way. selfless service - try it
