On trying to be a better person

I am (to my disgrace) very politically correct.
I try to help others in any way possible.
I support all my friend's artistic career, even though it means that I'm gonna be spending the money that I don't have.
I'm very caring. I really am.
I give up my subway or bus seat when I see a pregnant woman, an elder or anybody that might need it more than me.
I try not to spend too much water when I shower, when I brush my teeth, when I do the dishes, etc.
I donate to charity: Planned Parenthood, UNICEF, Doctor's Without Borders, WNYC, Children International and World Vision. I used to donate to Habitat for Humanity, The Humane Society, ASPCA and Channel 13th. I can't really afford to do it anymore, that's why I cut back. Even still is not enough to get a decent tax deduction.
I try to be as honest with my family and friends as I possibly can. But sometimes silence is the best policy.
I try. And I repeat, I TRY to keep in touch with my friends, even if is through Facebook. My success rate is kind of low.
I love animals. And they love me back.

I'm not a bad person, but I'm not perfect either. I don't think I'm doing too bad.

Ok, I'll try to improve and add more to that list.
