Random thoughts: Something about life I actually do wonder a lot is why some peoples goal in life is to try to put down other people and get pleasure from it (wont name specific names; this is actually very common). Its actually something I was never fully able to fully grasp or understand. My theory is that some peoples brains are either hard-wired or conditioned to want to put another down to somehow feel superior themselves? Or join a bandwagon? Or being conditioned to hate something (for example, if one candidate for President pays for a negative TV commercial to make his opposition look bad, an uneducated person [most people myself included] might be conditioned to base the current information we have as a negative thought on that person because of the biased commercial since we can correlate it with something negative). I want to make people happy, for the most part. I enjoy entertaining (and just having fun in general). I want to help others too (despite having FAR too many messages to handle lately which is why I dont always respond to everyone). I feel BAD if I do something to make another person feel bad (usually; depends situation and person). If someone is in a tight money situation, I usually do what I can to help them (although this has been my undoing also; Im owed about 10k from loans to many people in total that have never been paid back to me except for a select few people). I dont like being in positions when I can easily do something to make others happy (fun/entertainment/financially/etc) or dont take action in a situation that I feel that I can make a positive difference. And I do think a lot of this is because of the way Ive been raised. The fact that so many people in the world can think so negatively about everything makes me wonder if they are even happy themselves. But even in time periods (years ago) when I had major depression, I did not wish to attempt to make others feel bad; rather I usually keep most negative thoughts to myself since thats what the kinder/more mature thing is to do (and cuz mom said so lol). I feel it could be a reflection of your true self, and I also think the way you view life or try to think about life (positively or negatively) can both influence the type of person you become as well as your overall happiness and outlook on most things.
