If you took away the fact you consider yourself a "good" person, would you be happy with your life in any capacity? Would you be satisfied with what you are, in trying to achieve goodness? Or is it a comfort you provide yourself?

This isn't directed to any individual, to be clear.

Following an ethical code, for me at least, is less about personal edification and more about the needs of the community. If I am to be unhappy for the needs of others to be satisfied, then so be it.

Ethics can be found through the application of rationality, albeit with differing results based off of one's starting axioms. Some people have some pretty effed up axioms yo.
