People suck

So why is it that people feel the need to be complete jerkoffs, just for the fun of it?
Why do people feel the need to do spiteful, hurtful things to others, just because they can?

Every religion or path to faith, or whatever ya wanna call it, has their own way of putting things. Some say "Do unto others, as you would have done to you." The basic theory is whatever you put out there is going to come back.

If you are kind and generous with your time, then that will be rewarded in kind. But it goes both ways. If you are a total asswipe, that will come back too.

Now, don't get me wrong. I am not talking an eye for an eye here, but karma. Try it. Do something mildly rotten. Within a short period of time, something slightly more rotten will happen to you or someone you love.

Okay, so now some of you are thinking "oh boy, its that chain letter crap." No not like that. But if I am kind and generous, and do my best to be helpful and friendly to people around me, good things will come to me. If I chose to treat people like garbage and walk on them, bad things will happen to me.

I do my best to treat people the way I want to be treated. Too bad everyone else doesn't live that way. But the funny thing is that they won't win. I am going to keep doing the best I can to be the best person I can. I love my life, and I love my children. I wouldn't trade where I am or what I have gone through for anything. It is all part of the process.

For today, I am going to try even harder to be a better person. I wish I could instill this in the people around me, but I guess I will have to settle for instilling it in my children.

Life happens, and when it does, you just pick up the pieces and keep trudging on.
