The Human Condition! (the way i see it)

Isn't it funny how the human condition can allow people we normally perceive to be incapable of kindness or common decency to do wonderful things, if you really think about it even the most selfish an self absorbed person is capable of a beautiful and kind act.
Malicious acts are committed so rarely and by such a small minority yet promoted so regularly by news programs that we forget about all the good things that happen on a hourly, daily and weekly basis.
I would assume that 99% of the population, (without fear or thought of consequence) would put themselves between a child and imminent danger simply because we are programed to care about other living beings, and especially those that are more vulnerable then ourselves.
Sure these traits are more prominent in some of us then others, but at the end of the day they are there in almost all of us.
The difference between someone you love, hate, like, dislike, have time for or don't have time for is dependent on who YOU yourself are, and the environment that YOU come from, we are all different, we are all broken and we are all trying to make our way through life with all its ups and downs, we are all products of a different environment and we all think with a different kind of consciousness.
Just remember that the "idiot" who cut you off today or the "b*tch" who stole the guy you liked is a human being just like you and I, they are capable of making mistakes just like you and I.
But they will more then likely not be maliciously evil, in fact I would put money on them having never killed, maimed or harmfully taken advantage of anyone in their life, they just had a bad day or made a bad choice, if they were someone that you loved or cared about would your reaction to that choice be the same?
Probably not! And why is that?
I think its because when someone you care about hurts or upsets you your immediate reaction is to find out the reasoning behind it so you can kiss and make up.
But when it's someone you don't know that hurts or upsets you there feelings an reasoning don't matter to you because your detached from them on an emotional level.
Try to remember that there feelings matter to them and the people that care about them, so showing restraint in your reaction to the situation would be a kind and decent thing to do regardless of whether or not you gain anything from it.
Also the anger and frustration that you feel is only hurting you, no one else will ever be able to feel your pain, you will forever be the sole owner of your emotional state, allowing yourself to be angry or upset about something that cannot be changed or controlled will stop you from ever finding true happiness or solace.....
And always be good to your Mum!
