    This too is true but we also have choices and different life experiences.Humanity can also be inspiring look how America was created.Amazing if you think about it. We were left with problems we didn't create yet later blamed for and we still all overcame for a couple hundred years.
    I'm a cynic much of the time too and get what your saying.
    I just entertain myself posting so like everyone else ,its just an opinion.

    This is true also but so is the story about the positive and negative kids. Positive kid was thrown in a stall full of horse manure and said " theres got to be a pony in her somewhere"The negative kid was put in a room full of toys and candy said if I play with the toys I may break them and if I est thr csndy it will be all gone.Art Mortel.
    Maybe a happy mediem?

    Its true I am negative but so is life sometimes I am positive. I bet your saying 'when'.:D Nobody wants to debate things that are positive. I am positive though,I'm positive we are in a bad situation:p
