If you were a horrible angel, we'd be dead by now. You did what I couldn't do Misha. I can't express it through writing, but thank you. Don't be so hard on yourself.
Hurting people does not make you a horrible person, hurting someone for the wrong reasons does. If you hurt someone that intended to hurt you, then your actions were justified in that you were able to prevent your death.
Do forgive me then, my advice would be useless to you. If you've rules against harming others, I could never be an angel. I'm a human, and one of the rather sad bits about human beings is that they enjoy killing each other. I hurt people to preserve life and, if so inclined, to occasionally save the lives of others.
If a rock is coming towards you, logic dictates you move from the rock's path or you deserve to be squished. If a foe attempts to harm myself or others, he likewise knows that there is the risk that he too might eventually be squished. That is, to a person alive, the only rule that matters in preserving one's existence.

Angels help people, and you helped us. That, to me, is what a good angel would do.

This is all my fault.
