| Brad Daylight User ID: 34384416 United States02/03/2014 10:12 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I wonder the same thing... I don't understand hostility, what does it accomplish? I know people can be upset about things, but to be angry and hostile and gossip... why?! They spend their whole life being angry... just forget about the negative and reach for the positive. "I have felt despair many times in my life, but I do not keep a chair for it." ~Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estes Today is a gift, that is why it is called "The Present" “When an opponent declares, “I will not come over to your side,” I calmly say, “Your child belongs to us already… What are you? You will pass on. Your descendants, however, now stand in the new camp. In a short time they will know nothing else but this new community.” - Adolf Hitler “If you want to tell people the truth, make them laugh, otherwise they'll kill you.” -Oscar Wilde Have a nice day, may God bless you :D |

It will rub off on others and they will pass it on then maybe it will work its way back to you. This is real Karma. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 19522634 I am nice to everyone, try to stay positive and people still treat me like I don't matter. I try everyday to offer kindness, but mostly get treated like shit, lied to and made to feel like I am worthless. |

I think a lot of people are feeling a deep-seated fear of the future, and the way so many people are feeling the stress of our economies, government control, etc. |

| Sinclair User ID: 49801954 United States02/03/2014 10:24 PM  Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | People in today's society are taught to strive to be superior. Serve self in the competition to be the best. Being mean to others is an attempt to lower the status of the target to accomplish superiority in ones own mind. It is the weakness of individuals to believe others must be relegated beneath oneself to achieve success. Put simply, people are by and large weak minded and unable to feel powerful without besmirching those around them.

Where we have control of everything at our fingertips. Engaging in the real world is becoming a real drag for many. The real world requires compromise, compassion, patience, and other things that most would rather not deal with. |
