Everyone has their own issues. They really do. If people were able to live perfectly happy lives in this world, then this world could be considered as heaven. I'm not sure what other people believe, but if this is heaven, I'd be very sad.
So everyone has their own problems and its sorta unavoidable that they center their lives around those problems. But that's where life gets really tiring. Honestly, people need to learn to see the bigger picture. Some people are just so obsessed with living in their own small world.
Yes, life is unfair and sad and boo hoo but honestly, things could be so much worse. And not just that, there are bigger problems out there in the world. I feel like if people in this world cared more about things around them than just themselves, this world could be a much better world.
For example, there's dirty politics and corrupt leaders out there. One I've recently heard of is the King of Swaziland(country in Africa)
My friend who happens to be from there, was telling me about the King of Swaziland and how he's misusing his power and not paying the civil servants. They're not getting paid enough and apparently it has nothing to do with the problems with the Swazi economy. It has to do more with the corruption there and how the king doesn't want to give money and keep it for himself. So there's all this protesting going on and some people have even been hurt. Now this is the story that I've heard from someone actually living there and there are two sides to each story but from what I've heard, the protesters will be considered weak human beings incapable of standing up for themselves if they don't protest. At least in my point of view.
Now think about how things could be different if people cared for things around them and not just themselves. The councils and advisers of the king could most likely talk the king into doing the right thing because kings need to support of the noblemen in order to stay in power. And honestly he shouldn't even be the king if he's going to be a greedy arse.
Basically, so many things could be avoided if people cared more about the things around them. This world has a population of about 7.02 billion and counting. Its not just about one person.
