Here's something I've found to be true in my experiences...
1. Life appears to have difficulties. Heck, most of it seems to be the difficulties. The easy stuff is a small part of it.
2. Because being a person is such a bother, many people feel that reality has victimized them, they feel shortchanged by life, they feel they deserve "more" or should be treated better by the universe. It's not necessarily true, but many people BELIEVE it to be true, and act accordingly.
3. A lot of people have a tendency to want to make other people suffer, because it helps them feel that they have some influence on things around them; i.e., it is a demonstration of power they find comforting because they worry that they are power-less.
4. A lot of people also want to make others suffer (through verbal/psychological abuse, etc.) because it helps them believe that THEY are the attackers and not the victims, in other words, they seek to reverse roles between themselves and a troublesome universe.
5. People can manifest a desire to hurt other people without being completely aware of it. Many people are not aware of the desire at all and simply act unconsciously. They know not what they do.
6. Some people are completely aware of the bad things they are doing to other people, and really don't care. There is a special word for these people, but we cannot print it here.
7. You gotta be strong! They're misguided weirdos. Try not to let them get you down.
