I'd like to believe I was a good person, even if I wasn't. Maybe.
If I was to die within a week, it would not do me good to suddenly discover I was a bad person.
If I was to live for several years still, and I found out I was a bad person, then I could change to be a good person before I died. And I could make amends for some of the bad things I must have done. But I would still have to live with the horror of having been a bad person.
