What I Have Learned So Far…

I thought I would start recording all the things I have learned about life, maybe in an effort to clear my head a bit. Maybe as a bit of an experiment… Also a way to vent my frustrations at the world… whatever the reason, here they are. In no particular order…
- People are selfish and rude
- Not everyone is selfish and rude, but most are. A few will surprise you
- Ignorance really is bliss
- No matter how much you try to prepare for something, something you hadn’t thought of will almost always happen
- People are deluded and do not live in reality
- Living in reality sucks, and thus why people delude themselves
- The world isnt as nice and as good as people will have you believe
- Most people take and dont give
- When someone strenuously objects to something, its usually because its true
- People often project their problems onto others (Transference)
- If you want to see the worst in people, go for a drive when traffic is busiest
- If you want to see the best in people, look at a disaster, war, or other tragedy. Difficulty, trouble, and adversity seems to bring people together.
- People like drama and trouble, and thats why ‘Reality TV’ is popular
- There is no one path in life, everyone has their own, and some are easier than others
- Dont judge someone too quickly, but trust your instincts
- People love to talk about themselves, and don’t want to hear about you very often
- If you are nice to others, and helpful, you will get used by most people
- Women are selfish, ambiguous, confusing, have no idea of their emotions
- Complimenting people just makes them arrogant and self centered, and you will not be appreciated or respected for it. You will just get used.
- Everyone lies, even to those that may matter.
- The few who do not lie do not get respected for it
- People mostly only care about themselves. If they care about someone else, its only usually only to pad their own ego
- Love makes you vulnerable and weak, and you will be exploited for it, or it will be thrown in your face
