...I could simply remove this pain the way you remove a unwanted hair from your chin or a rusty nail from a board - so simple, a minor tug, it leaves no scar n its gone - no pain left behind. It would be nice to know why people feel a need to tear others down - I truly will never understand that, how does a person find enjoyment in that? I wish I could understand why this world is so full of so much hatred n it just spills over like a bowl overflowing.

Crypts I wish I knew the answers to both of those. It takes so much hard work to take away the pain. I don't understand people who feel the need to tear others down-- but I feel very sorry for them. There is a lot of hatred in this world-- but there's a lot of love, too.

Thank you for validating my feeling n understanding. You are lucky not to know anyone that likes to tear others down - it is a very chilling thing to watch and confusing when it happens to you. I agree there is way too much hatred in this world n it makes me sad.

I've asked myself the same questions many times. When I start feeling like this sometimes I search online for good news stories so I can try to reassure myself that there are good people in the world. There's a YouTube channel called "RealLifeHeroes" that I'll watch from time to time, it just has a lot of great videos about humans doing amazing things for each other and animals. I know, it's kinda silly, but it can at least help pull me back from the pits of depression sometimes.

I can't really watch much youtube cuz i don't have fast data on my phone n most things skip a lot...but I understand what you are saying - I have just had a really rough couple of days reminding me of the bad side of humanity I try to look past.
